WINNIPEG, June 27 (MarketsFarm) – Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) canola futures were lower on Tuesday morning in a correction from earlier gains.
There’s pressure from declines in the Chicago soy complex as well as in European rapeseed and Malaysian palm oil. Global crude oil prices were down by a small amount, weighing on the vegetable oils.
Dry conditions are expected to dominate the Prairies through to the weekend, with the chance of scattered thunderstorms. Daytime highs are to be in the mid 20’s Celsius range.
