Glacier FarmMedia | MarketsFarm – Intercontinental Exchange canola futures slipped back on Monday morning, due to pressure from losses in comparable oils.

Chicago soybeans and soyoil plus Malaysian palm oil were to the downside while MATIF rapeseed was mixed. Losses in crude oil added more pressure on the vegetable oils.

Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada issued its September supply and demand report late Friday. As with Statistics Canada’s September production update, canola production for 2025/26 is 20.03 million tonnes. Canola exports were projected to be seven million tonnes with domestic crush at 11.80 million and ending stocks at 2.50 million.
