WINNIPEG, October 18 – Canola contracts on the ICE Futures Canada platform were slightly higher, in technical trading.
Much of the market’s focus has turned to soil moisture problems in South American soybean fields.
Strong winds in Western Canada have done some damage to the remaining canola left in the field.
However, weakness in the U.S. soy complex limited the gains.
Malaysian palm oil futures were also lower, which undermined prices
Milling wheat, barley and durum were untraded.
