Trade & Biofuel Policy: What Canadian Canola Farmers Need to Know

Trade is vital to Canadian canola farmers’ success, with nearly 90% of production exported to global markets. Keeping existing markets open while diversifying and expanding into new ones, such as biofuel markets, is critical for long-term success. But with rising uncertainty around the world – driven by increasing protectionism, geopolitical tension, looming tariff threats, and the upcoming Canada-U.S.-Mexico trade agreement review – farmers face significant uncertainty heading into the 2025 planting season. 

Join Canadian Canola Growers Association for a look at recent trade policy developments and what they mean for your farm. Topics include China’s anti-dumping investigation into Canadian canola seed, evolving trade dynamics with the U.S., and the shifting biofuels market in Canada and the U.S. Don’t miss this chance to gain valuable insights from CCGA’s policy experts. 

This webinar is presented in partnership with Canadian Canola Growers Association, Alberta Canola, SaskOilseeds, and Manitoba Canola Growers.
