China imposes temporary anti-dumping duty on Canadian canola
CANADA, AUG 12 – China's Ministry of Commerce found Canadian canola imports caused substantial damage to domestic producers and set provisional tariffs at 75.8% amid ongoing trade disputes.
- On Tuesday, August 12, 2025, China's Ministry of Commerce announced deposits of 75.8 percent will be collected from Thursday on Canadian canola exports as preliminary anti-dumping duties.

- Market reactions were swift as ICE November canola futures fell four to a three-month low; China, the largest importer sourcing nearly all from Canada, is affected.
- The action provides Australia an opening to send test canola cargoes this year, as analyst Even Rogers Pay said the tariffs add pressure on Canada's government to resolve trade frictions.
- A final ruling due by September could change or withdraw the provisional duties, but analysts warn full replacement of Canadian canola remains unlikely without a sharp drop in import demand.
