Canadian oilseed flax exporters are poised to potentially increase their market share in the European Union, contingent on the EU imposing duties on agricultural imports from Russia and Belarus, as highlighted by Kent Anholt of Rayglen Commodities Inc. This opportunity, however, is challenged by an expected 16% decrease in Canada's oilseed flax crop area in 2023, dropping to its lowest since 1949 at 206.4 thousand hectares.

At the same time, K.

It must be noticeably more expensive than ...
