Glacier FarmMedia | MarketsFarm – Intercontinental Exchange canola futures were lower on Wednesday morning, getting mixed signals from comparable oils.

Chicago soybeans were narrowly mixed, along with losses in soyoil and upticks in soymeal. Malaysian palm oil was relatively steady and MATIF rapeseed was lower. Crude oil was higher with spillover trying to underpin the vegetable oils.

On Thursday at 7:30 a.m. CST, Statistics Canada will issue its updated production report. Trade expectations project the 2025/26 canola harvest to be 20.08 million to 22.10 million tonnes compared to StatCan’s September estimate of 20.03 million.
