# Canola trade agreement sparks muted price response | The Western Producer

> Canola prices have responded modestly to the resumption of trade with China following Prime Minister Carney's January deal. March futures rose less than 1% between January 16 and February 2, while Chinese buyers reportedly booked 650,000 tonnes of canola. Further gains depend on weekly export pace and competing oilseed markets.

## Why it matters

Chinese bookings support canola demand, but slow shipments have kept price gains limited, so buyers should watch export data before expecting a sustained rally.
