ICE Canada Morning Comment: Canola swings upward

By Glen Hallick

Glacier FarmMedia | MarketsFarm – Intercontinental Exchange canola futures were higher on Monday morning, turning around from Friday’s losses.

Support for canola came from gains in MATIF rapeseed as well as Chicago soybeans and soymeal, but soyoil was virtually unchanged. Declines in crude oil put pressure on the vegetable oils. The palm oil market in Malaysia is closed for a holiday.

Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada issued its monthly supply and demand report on Friday. AAFC maintained its 2025/26 canola estimates from September, with production at 20.03 million tonnes, exports at seven million, domestic use of 12.23 million and ending stocks at 2.50 million.
