   Excerpt:   
      
   "   
   Heavy snow and rain during harvest on the Canadian Prairies have left   
   several million acres of canola buried until spring, the latest blow in a   
   miserable year that may compound farmer problems into 2020.   
      
   Canola is renowned as Canada's most profitable crop, exported to China,   
   Japan and Mexico to make vegetable oil and animal feed.   
      
   But in March, Beijing revoked the licences of Canadian exporters Richardson   
   International and Glencore Plc's agriculture unit, Viterra Inc., slowing   
   China's overall purchases amid a broader diplomatic dispute.
