Glacier FarmMedia — The ICE Futures canola market was narrowly mixed at midday Wednesday, seeing some consolidation after the large price swings of recent sessions.
Gains in Chicago soybeans and soyoil provided spillover support. European rapeseed and Malaysian palm oil futures were holding relatively steady.
The January canola contract touched its 50-day moving average to the downside but remained above that chart point heading into the final hours of trade.
The federal budget released Tuesday included a new biofuel initiative and a push to diversify trade — both of which would increase the potential demand for canola.
