Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada raised its 2016-17 ending stock forecast for major grains and oilseeds to 13.5 million tonnes, up about 400,000 tonnes from November. Production was forecast at 82.9 million tonnes, with exports slightly lower.
Higher projected Canadian carryout signals ample supplies, which is mildly bearish for grain and oilseed prices.
