EU to import record rapeseed volumes
Western Europe has witnessed a drastic rise in rapeseed prices. Agreste estimates production in France at 3.37 million metric tonnes, a 3.7% decline on last year. Tallage has revised EU import estimates up to a record 6.2 million metric tonnes, whereas the European Commission is reckoning with imports of 6.0 million metric tonnes. Supplies in Western Europe, however, range on a similar level as last year. Production is down in France, but up in Germany. Lithuania has stepped up production by 22% to 837,000 metric tonnes. Production is to range 15% higher in Ukraine at 3.9 million metric tonnes. The drought like conditions have by no means impacted production and exports should range 13% higher at 3.4 million metric tonnes. As production is to range as much as 39% higher in Australia canola exports should also range 20% higher than last year at 2.2 million metric tonnes.Export from Canada are expected to range on a similar level as last year at 9 million metric tonnes.
