Canola Exports to China

This issue recently has arisen as China will require all canola shipments from Canada to be tested for blackleg after November 15.

You may find more information from the Canola Council of Canada at this link.

 
Information from the Canadian Canola Growers Association about cash advances for harvested canola

While selling canola off the combine can be an option, you might be looking for other ways to generate cash flow while providing flexibility to sell your canola when market conditions are favourable to you. That’s where the Advance Payment Program offered through the Canadian Canola Growers Association can play a role. Producers are eligible for a cash advance up to $400,000, with a $100,000 interest-free portion.

To apply: go to www.ccga.ca; call the CCGA at 1-866-745-2256; or fill out an application at your local elevator. If you already have a pre-harvest cash advance from the CCGA, you may be eligible for an additional advance or can extend your repayment deadline by completing Part 3 of your application.
