The week after Canola Week

Sustainability still reigns in discussions of farming's future, and canola is no exception. Alberta Farmer reporter Alexis Kienlen recaps the Canola Week conferences in Saskatoon, where topics at hand included not only improving the plant and its efficiency in the face of climate change, but also the use of the crop as a feedstock for new reduced-footprint renewable diesel. Also: for all the apparent day-to-day drama in canola futures, they're still entrenched in the $800-$900 per tonne range. Phil Franz-Warkentin of MarketsFarm discusses what's behind the near-term fluctuation and what it'll take to break out of that range one way or the other. Hosted by Dave Bedard.
