# Canada’s canola crushing capacity expands to 15 mln tons per year

> Canada’s annual canola-crushing capacity has grown from about 11 million to 15 million tonnes as companies built new plants and expanded existing facilities. Processing volumes also rose, reaching a reported 12.9 million tonnes by early 2026, and additional capacity is expected to intensify competition among crushers for domestic canola supplies.

## Why it matters

More crushing capacity can increase domestic demand for canola seed while adding potential supply of meal and oil; the net price effect depends on how quickly production and demand absorb the extra processed products.
