Canola futures eased past CAD 630 per tonne, reaching early-April lows largely due to a perfect storm of rising supply expectations and collapsed export demand. Agriculture Canada raised its 2025-26 canola production estimate to 20.10 million tonnes, up nearly 13% from July’s forecast, pushing total supply to about 21.38 Mt and boosting projected carry-out stocks by about 1.2 Mt compared to last month. At the same time, China slapped preliminary anti-dumping duties of 75.8% on Canadian canola seed, on top of existing heft tariffs on canola oil and meal, effectively shutting off nearly C$5 billion in annual exports. To compound the downside, bearish spillover from a softening U.S. soy complex, especially weaker soybean oil tied to reduced biofuel demand after exemptions, has dragged down related vegetable oils, putting further pressure on canola.
