# New record for Canadian canola crushing in 2018-19 - Manitoba Co-operator

> Canadian processors crushed a record 9.295 million tonnes of canola seed in the 2018-19 crop year ending July 31, up 0.3% from the prior record. China has nearly stopped importing Canadian canola seed but is buying more Canadian canola oil and meal. Processors say trade uncertainty makes new crushing capacity investment unlikely.

## Why it matters

Record crush adds meal and oil supply to domestic markets while China shifts to finished products, which weighs on canola meal prices. Limited new capacity would constrain future supply growth.
