2007-08 Mustard Production Summary
For 2007-08, production is forecast to increase because of the
18% higher seeded area and higher yields, while supply decreases
as lower carry-in stocks more than offset the increase in production.
Production is expected to increase for the yellow and brown types,
but decrease for the oriental type. Exports are expected to fall
slightly due to higher prices. Carry-out stocks are forecast to
decrease sharply, with a s/u of 23%. The average price, over all
types and grades, is expected to increase due to the lower supply.
2007 Seeding Intentions for Mustard
Statistics Canada's March 2007 survey of seeding intentions indicates
that Saskatchewan farmers plan to seed 360,000 acres of mustard,
a 22% increase over 2006.
