For additional market comments and trading service contact PFA Commodity Futures Service (717) 761-2740 ACRES SOYBEAN UPDATE: Soybean futures rallied again this afternoon on short covering which pushed beans through light buy stops. Late strength was attributed to spill over from the meal. Light delivery notices are expected tomorrow which spurred buying in old crop and saw old crop/ new crop spreads widen. Light movement and ideal weather has kept activity at a minimum. Spring planting is behind in the European USSR and that has lent some support to futures.
