Acres Com Update
Com futures prices closed sharply lower
this afternoon under pressure from fund
long liquidation ’fueled by itiarply lower
wheat prices. Today's settlements i Were
from 2-3/4 to 5-1/2 cents lower m heavy
volume. Prices were fractionally mixed
this morning after yesterday’s neutral to
slightly bearish report with added pressure
coming from the absence of fresh demand.
Wheal prices plunged on news that the
USDA is expected to announce this week a
proposal to allow producers to plant 110%
of their base acreage. Losses m September
were pared by strong cash basis levels and
late harvest ideas. December dropped
5-1/2 cents and settled at $2.29-1/2 after
trading m a range from $2.29 to $2.35-1/2.

in response to new forecasts calling for

Heavy sales were tied to fund long liquida
tion fueled by talk that the USDA was
expected to make an a7nouncement this
week thqt producers would be allowed to
plant 110% of their base. Further pressure
was linked to wire service reports that the
USSR had made all their grain purchases
for this year. September closed 8 cents

dropped from 10*3/4 to 14 cents.
