The USDA's soybean production figures came as a surprise. Contrary to expectations, the USDA raised the US soybean production outlook and expects a very good harvest of 123.3 million tons.

Today, Friday's premarket gains are more than recouped. Most of the changes for rapeseed were small.

For the coming sowing, the association expects a higher production again. Canola in Winnpeg fell on Friday.
