By Dwayne Klassen April 9, 2013

Canola futures on the ICE Futures Canada trading platform were forced into losses during the holiday-shortened week ending March 28 by the release of some bearishly construed U.S. Department of Agriculture reports.

By Charles Abbott March 25, 2013

The U.S. Agriculture Department delivered few surprises in its monthly crop and world agricultural supply-demand reports, keeping U.S. corn and soybean supplies tight but raising global soybean and wheat stockpiles from a month ago.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture is projecting a rebound in U.S. corn and soybean yields in 2013 that, along with high planted acreage, opens the door to record-large crops and for prices to tumble from 2012-13 levels.

By Dwayne Klassen February 28, 2013

High costs expected to bite into U.S. farm profit

By Reuters February 22, 2013

The seven-year-old U.S. agricultural boom, driven by record-high commodity prices and painfully tight supplies, is expected to peak this year and then come to an abrupt end as high costs start to bite, the government projected Feb. 11.
