ACRES CORN UPDATE:
Com futures closed out the day
fractionally higher with losses in
the deferreds of 3/4 cents. Buying
interest throughout the session
was light with many players side
lined in advance of the crop
report. Today’s lower opening
was dictated by the lack of any
firm export commitments. Gener
ic certificates were bid mostly
steady to slightly lower. Today’s
USDA Crop Report, which was
beaiishly construed by floor trad
ers and analysts, showed total pro
duction at 4.671 billion bushels
which was up from the October 12
report of 4.553 billion bushels.
Ending stocks increased from
1,407 billion bushels to 1.446 bil
lion bushels.

ACRES SOYBEAN
UPDATE: Soybean prices closed
from 1 cent lower on the January
option to 1/2 cent higher on the
September option. Trading
remained confined to narrow
ranges today with some short cov
ering featured late in the session.
The lack of a export confirmation
opened the pit under pressure but
news midsession that Spain and
Yugoslavia had purchased beans
helped to strengthen prices along
with sharply higher foreign cur
rencies. Today’s USDA Crop
Report showed production at
1.512 billion bushels, which was
up from the October 12th report at
1.501 billion bushels. Floor trad
ers and analysts termed the report
neutral for beans. Ending stocks

figures were unchanged from the
previous report at 125 million
bushels.
ACRES WHEAT UPDATE:
Wheat futures settled mostly low
er today after a fairly choppy ses
sion featuring positioning in
advance of today’s USDA Supply/
demand and crop reports. Some
support was linked to ideas that
China and the Soviet Union would
soon be granted export bonus
offers along with news that Iraq
would receive credit terms on
wheal and what flower. Aggres
sive sellers were absent today with
profit-taking limited in front of
today’s reports. Today’s USDA
Ending stocks report reported
wheat unchanged at 528 million
bushels from last months report
