Glacier FarmMedia – Canola futures on the Intercontinental Exchange were lower on Friday as the oilseed is still reeling from Thursday’s principal field crop estimates from Statistics Canada.
StatCan projected the 2025-26 canola crop at a record 21.8 million tonnes, but an analyst said there is a chance that figure may be understated. The January contract is also approaching late-September, early-October lows while staying above the psychological level of C$620 per tonne.
Chicago soyoil, European rapeseed and Malaysian palm oil were higher. Crude oil was also up as Russia-Ukraine peace talks stall and tensions grow between the United States and Venezuela.
