# Canadian wheat prices rise while cattle and canola prices decline

> Statistics Canada data show Prairie farm-gate wheat prices, excluding durum, rose for a fourth straight month in September, up 15.4% to 19.5% year on year. Canola prices fell 6.1% to 6.6% from August as new-crop supply increased, and slaughter cattle, feeder cattle and hog prices also declined across most provinces.

## Why it matters

Rising wheat values and falling canola, cattle and hog prices reflect tighter grain supply against heavier livestock supply and weaker feedlot margins. Lower canola and livestock prices point to cheaper meal and protein inputs for feed buyers, while firmer wheat prices raise feed grain costs.
