EU Rapemeal Prices

18/06/13 -- Rapemeal prices on the continent are mostly a little easier today following losses in soymeal values in the US last night, and warmer and drier in the weather in Europe improving new crop production prospects. AgriFood Canada estimate canola production there at 14.1 MMT this year, an increase of 6% on last year, despite a fall in planted area as yields rebound to more like normal levels.
