Com and soybean bids continued to
decline ihuply end wheat bidi followed
the trend. Additional correctioni were
made in com and bean bids due to recent
sharp gains. Profit taking and a pickup in
farmer selling, weighed on bids. Wheat
bids were pressured by the sharp drops and
favorable weather in the Southeast. Good
export demand to far this week, especially
for com, limited tome of die weakness.
Wheat 1 to 5 cents lower. Com 9 to 13
cents lower. Sorghum 18 to 20 cents lower.
