## Resource

Canola just hit $800/ton for the first time since 2023. This week Ryan Denis sits down with Susan Stroud from No Bull Ag to break down the surprising rally in canola, why U.S. biofuel policy may be driving the move, and what producers should consider as prices surge higher. They discuss renewable fuel mandates, RIN values, soybean oil demand, canola’s role in biofuels, risk management, and why some of the best sales happen when farmers feel the most uncomfortable. Plus: Western Ag joins the show to discuss CropCaster, fertility planning, yield forecasting, and how better agronomy data can improve crop marketing decisions.
