Glacier FarmMedia – Canola futures on the Intercontinental Exchange were in positive territory coming out of the weekend as crude oil prices surged once again.
The United States military announced it will begin a blockade of ships entering and exiting Iranian ports at approximately 9 a.m. CDT. Peace talks between the U.S. and Iran ended last weekend without any resolution to the conflict. As a result, crude oil prices rose more than US$6 per barrel.
Rising crude oil has spilled over into vegetable oils with Chicago soyoil, European rapeseed and Malaysian palm oil showing gains.
