Canola futures traded above CAD 690 per tonne, near the highest level since July 2025, amid stronger demand and elevated prices of soy oil. China announced that will drop main tariffs on Canadian canola, following an agreement made between The Canadian and Chinese governments during Prime Minister Mark Carney’s January visit. Carney said China would cut rapeseed (canola) tariffs to 15% on March 1, though the final rate remains uncertain. Traders in China had already begun booking cargoes ahead of the change, while domestic demand also remained strong.
