Rapeseed prices on the Paris stock exchange have surged to their highest since March 2023, influenced by a stronger dollar post-Donald Trump's election, enhancing the competitiveness of euro-priced exports. This rise is supported by increasing global vegetable oil prices, with Malaysian palm oil up 25% and American soybeans up 20%. The February rapeseed contract rose by 2.2% to EUR 523.00/t, a 17.5% increase from the previous year. American soybean prices slightly increased by 0.1%, and Canadian canola prices rose by 2.6%. Despite these short-term gains, long-term and medium-term downtrends continue for soybeans and canola.
