MARKET TRENDS
Acres Corn Update:, com
futures added to yesterday's gains and
settled from 2 to 3-1/2 cents higher this
afternoon. Buying was in response to
weather forecasts for a return of warm and
dry weather late this week over the western
belt July was further supported by good
commercial demand tinted to ideas that
the USSR would soon be in the market for
export. Further support was attributed to
newt that Mexico had purchased 139,500
metric tonnes. Oat futures closed lower on
, ideas that there would be heavy deliveries
potted against the July on first notice day
this Friday. July com settled Jwo cents
higher for the day at $2.64-3/4 after trading
in a range from $2.63-1/2 to $2.66-1/2.
Bids for generic certificates were steady
today.

Acres Soybean Update: soy
bean futures prices ended today's session
mixed with the front three options from 2
lower on the September to 10-3/4 lower on
the July. November settled unchanged
while the January gained 1/2 cent Weak
ness in the spot July managed to spill over
to the other months and eroded gains made
early in the session. Pressure on the old
crop months was attributed to news beans
were starting to move in Brazil in spite of
the farmer protests. The sentiment t hat the
protest was becoming less effective
prompted selling. Additional pressure was
linked to conflicting weather forecasts with
prospects for increased rainfall in parts of
the midwest prompting lale liquidation.
November settled unchanged this after
noon at $6.46 after trading in a range from
$6.43 to $6.52-1/2.
