The canola community offers many opportunities for face-to-face learning through canoLAB, canolaPALOOZA and big joint productions like FarmTech in Edmonton, CropSphere in Saskatoon and CropConnect in Winnipeg. These panelists talk about why they attended specific events and what they learned.
Comparisons by agri benchmark show that despite the trade conflict with China, canola seems to be performing rather well, so far, when compared to other vegetable oils. Furthermore, the relative price of canola versus wheat also favours canola. Consequently, canola has been a rather profitable crop for Canadian producers as well as for many others around the globe – especially in Ukraine and Hungary.
When your farm is EU-certified, the canola you grow is eligible for export to Europe’s important biofuel market. It’s a simple and timely way to gain access to this significant market opportunity.
