#Farmers in #Canada are reeling from China's decision to impose hefty duties on their #CanolaSeed, after the surprise move spooked #grain buyers into halting purchases & stoked worries there will be little demand for crop deliveries this autumn.

#China hit Canadian #canola seed imports with preliminary 75.8% duties on Tuesday following an anti-dumping investigation, escalating a year-long #trade dispute.

#China announced preliminary anti-dumping duties on Canadian #canola imports on Tues, escalating a year-long #trade dispute that began with Ottawa's imposition of #tariffs on Chinese #ElectricVehicle imports last Aug.

The 75.8% provisional rate will be effective from Thursday.

The #Canada disputed the Chinese finding saying in a statement late Tues the country does not dump canola & that it was "deeply disappointed" w/China's decision, but remained open to dialogue.
