> Canadian Oilseed Processors Association expects canola crush capacity to grow by 5.7 million tonnes over the next few years, a 50 percent increase. An analyst expects roughly 3.5 to 4 million tonnes of extra annual canola meal output, with the United States the main buyer and its market already heavy with soybean meal.
