The article reports a decrease in the February rapeseed contract price on the Paris stock exchange by 1.0%, bringing it to EUR 517.00/t, but still 20.2% higher than the previous year. This increase is due to poor rapeseed harvests in the EU, despite weak soybean prices and strong palm oil prices. The European Commission also reduced the EU rapeseed harvest forecast for the 2024/25 season to 17.1 million tonnes, marking a decrease of 2.6 million tonnes compared to the previous season, with France, Germany, and Poland expected to experience significant drops in production. In contrast, soybean and canola prices on the Chicago Board of Trade and Winnipeg Exchange, respectively, remained stable or declined slightly.
