    Canola Futures

    Hey guys, long time listener first time caller. What are everyone's thoughts on the canola futures? They are in a free fall as of late. Where are they headed and how does this affect everyones plans going forward? Was looking at more canola acres this spring but not sure what to do now. Everyone's thoughts are welcome!

      Volatility is expected.

      How dry will the weather be...

      Will China keep buying Soybeans/Canola... they keep the oilseeds going.

          Yes, canola futures have taken a hit lately. Too risky to grow at this price with today's costs. If it doesn't turn around , guys will be cancelling seed and acres will be down big time this spring.Minniapolis wheat trading under 5 bucks, spring wheat acres will be down a lot too. These acres will be replaced with soybeans and pulses

                      Basis steady so far at the crush plant. Futures caved after the gravestone doji (close enough) was printed on Jan 22. Cash prices down.

                                  Just trying the Beta... Bailed out of most of my CDN$ and Short New Crop Canola... Princess wants to make money... not spend on risk management... Blood pressure needs a break!

                                      farming101....I wish it was all a bad dream and the chart was inverted. Not like there weren't opportunities along the way....canola and wheat.
