Acres Corn Update: com
futures added another 1/4 to 1-3/4 cents to
yesterday's gains. Selling late in the ses
sion dropped prices from session highs as
profit taking set in. Added strength early in
the session was attributed to firmer basis
levels and renewed export talk. Commer
cial demand continues to underpin prices.
December closed out today at $2.86-1/2
after setting a session high of $2.88-3/4
shortly before the close. Generic certificate
bids remained steady.

Acres Soybean Update: soy
beans futures prices closed shaiply higher
but off session highs on buying attributed
to hopes of Soviet purchases. Subsequent
to the close the USDA announced a sale of
250,000 Metric tonnes to the Soviet Union.
Further support was linked to upcoming
tenders from Egypt and South Korea along
with a firmer basis tone and a slight
increase in demesne demand. November
