The ICE Futures canola market fell back on Tuesday morning after hitting a three-month high on Friday, as activity resumed following the Remembrance Day long weekend.
Chicago soyoil and Malaysian palm oil saw heavy declines, while European rapeseed was mixed. However, crude oil was higher after retreating on Monday due to weak Chinese demand and a strong United States dollar.
