# Market Update for Rapeseed & Canola 30th of March 2026

> Rapool's weekly rapeseed and canola update says vegetable oil prices have risen to their highest in over three years, with the OIL WORLD edible oil index at 201-205 points in March versus 177 a year earlier. Biodiesel and HVO have become more competitive versus mineral diesel, but the extent of energy-sector vegetable oil demand growth is uncertain. Record global rapeseed supplies cap the rally.

## Why it matters

Higher energy prices are lifting vegetable oil values and biofuel feedstock demand, which supports rapeseed and canola, but record supplies limit the upside. Traders should watch whether biofuel demand actually materialises.
