About Canola meal vs soybean meal spread
A price spread in $/ton as-fed is the starting point, not the answer. Two feeds with the same $/ton can deliver very different amounts of protein and energy per ton of dry matter, which is why the substitution leaderboard ranks them on cost per unit of nutrient rather than on the board price. Use this spread to watch the trend; use the leaderboard to make the comparison.
