November Deliveries of Major Grains Slip from October; Still Above a Year Ago

Canadian producer deliveries of major grains dropped in November compared to a month earlier but remained well above last year. 

Statistics Canada reported Wednesday that producers delivered 5.623 million tonnes of major grains last month. That’s down just over 1 million tonnes or 15.1% from the 6.626 million delivered in October, but still 14.2% above the 4.923 million tonnes delivered in November 2024. 

September deliveries were the highest so far for the 2025-26 crop year at 7.315 million tonnes. 

Major grains include wheat (excl durum), durum wheat, oats, barley, rye, flaxseed and canola. 

Producer deliveries include grain that is destined for a primary elevator, feed mill, crushing plant or flour mill. This includes grain elevators that hold grain before it is exported, as well as shipments to U.S. markets that are not licensed by the Canadian Grain Commission.
