* Most-active March canola RSH9 added 30 cents to $485.50.
* Chicago January soybeans SF9 rose on hopes of more sales to China. February Paris Matif rapeseed futures /COMG9 and Malaysian February palm oil futures /1FCPOG9 dipped.
* The Canadian dollar CAD= was trading at $1.3405 to the U.S. dollar, or 74.60 U.S. cents, at 12:50 p.m. CST (1850 GMT). A weaker dollar makes Canadian commodities more attractively priced in global markets.
