Key Takeaway
Rotterdam Crude Rapeseed Oil prices (FOB) increased from US$ 1,126/MT in October 2024 to US$ 1,430/MT in September 2026, a gain of 27.0%. Prices declined to a low of US$ 1,122/MT in January 2025 before recovering through the remainder of the period, with a particularly strong increase during May–June 2026. The trend indicates a strong upward movement in the quoted benchmark.
- Crude rapeseed oil prices at Rotterdam are influenced by rapeseed production, oilseed crushing volumes, and the availability of domestic and imported supplies in Europe. Weather conditions in major producing regions, including the European Union and Canada, can affect seed yields and oil availability.
- Demand from food processors and biodiesel manufacturers, production costs, and crushing margins also influence prices. Competition from soybean, palm, and sunflower oils, alongside changes in energy prices, biofuel policies, import flows, and currency exchange rates, can contribute to fluctuations in the Rotterdam benchmark.
