    Bucket, there may be some near term bump in canola trying to entice selling but that tells me they are trying to get ahead of a problem down the road. I suspect the trade is playing us here. Best thing we could do is to starve it for 6 months. There is no alternative supply of that crop. We hold the hammer and this is the yr we should use it.
    Agreed....forgot to mention the backlog of vessels on the west coast waiting for canola since mid august?

    I think the graincos trying to pull southern canola is for their benefit of blending at west coast for the impending wreck up north...

      How can there be vessels waiting on coast when crop isn't even in the bin yet? Thought that only happened when the railroads didn't deliver now that the CWB is gone and it isn't their fault any more. Must be farmers fault for not getting the crop off and selling already.

        The paper carryover hasn't materialized into the physical carryover.....everything looks good on paper....Neil Townsend is a perfect example.....spends zero time on a combine but still believes his 42 BPA estimate on canola....35bpa published by Saskag take another 2 percent off for dockage....

          If canola is at port by mid-August this would have to be old crop canola.

            Exactly and the boats are now waiting for new crop....the carryover wasn't there and statscan has 2 years to doctor the numbers....at the expense of farmers...

            I am no expert and will gladly admit it but when farmers north of Edmonton are not growing their 50bpa plus crops ....where are you going to average the crop to what the experts are predicting...this is all really simple math....it for sure is not rocket science like statscan and guys like Townsend try to make it...

            Disclaimer....I have never seen my yield average higher at the end of a field than when I start it....even though through out the field I see triple digits.....at the end its always lower...and then when delivering to the elevator which is the only yield monitor that matters ...lower yet...

                Is there a listing of who ordered them and what they are waiting to load? How about Quorum Corp or other grain monitoring.

                  Mandatory sales reporting would help take care of a lot of issues hiding in the weeds and the Friday family tea party in Winnipeg....

                    Not that I am aware of.

                    Ships will sometimes broadcast what they are in port for generally. "Agricultural Commodities"
                    Also , shipping agencies are tagged to ships in port, but not to a designated terminal. Until of course the ship docks

                      Question.....do you think the exporters get away with this kind of bullshit in the US?

                      Sales are reported by weeks end and large sales by days end....

                      In Canada SFA....and the new ag critic for the conservatives helped make the mess in Canada according to her bio....
