Canola futures fell to a four-month low after funds sold heavily, with weakness across other vegetable-oil markets adding pressure. Saskatchewan’s final report estimated canola yields at 38.3 bushels per acre, below Statistics Canada’s cited estimate of 41.9 and last year’s 45.2; Statistics Canada is due to update its estimates in early December.
If the Saskatchewan estimate signals a smaller crop than the market expects, tighter Canadian supplies could support prices. For now, speculative selling and weakness in competing oils are weighing on canola futures.
