# StatCan expected to raise estimate for oats production - Grainews

> Statistics Canada's September stocks report put 2022-23 oat ending stocks at 1.275 million tonnes, well above the prior year and the five-year average. Analysts expect the upcoming production report to raise the 2023-24 oat estimate, though it will remain well short of last year. Cash bids in Manitoba and Alberta have fallen over the past month.

## Why it matters

Large old-crop carryout offsets the smaller new crop, keeping Canadian oat supplies comfortable and pressuring feed oat prices. Buyers have less reason to pay premiums while stocks stay heavy.
