tive, along with rumors of soviet
interest in purchases of U.S. Com.
A weak front is producing light
ram in parts of the belt.
ACRES SOYBEAN
UPDATE: Soybean futures closed

Forecasts for hot and dry weather
fueled the buying enthusiasm
today with only a slight prospect
for rain in the near future. A weak
front is moving through the belt
now producing isolated rainfall.
Soybeans are now at new 4-1/2
year highs, with meal at an 11 year
high.
ACRES WHEAT UPDATE:
Wheat futures closed locked limit
up this afternoon, having attained
that goal shortly after the opening.
Again, new contract highs were
made today as bullish weather
forecasts continued to power this
market. July wheat closed at $3.94,
after an opening at $3.80. Spillover

added further support.
ACRES CATTLE UPDATE:
Today’s limit up gains in grain
forced live cattle and feeders to
close limit down in most options.
Weak cash fundamentals and light
boxed beef movement added to the
selling momentum along with
fears of stock liquidation due to the
drought The front four options in
live cattle closed limit down while
all feeder options locked limit
down. Pre-estimates of Friday’s
Cattle on Feed Report are calling
for placements of 2.03 million
head, or 12% above the 10 year
average.
