Grain Market
ST. JOSEPH, MO
MAY 14, 1997
Grain and soybean bids finished lower,
today, due to belter than expected winter
wheat crop and good progress made in
spring planting. Wheat 2 to 7 cents lower.
Com steady to 2 cents lower. Sorghum 2
cents lower. Soybeans 7 to 11 cents lower.
Less damage than expected for hard red
winter wheat has been reported. However,
harvest will be the final prognosis. Spring
wheat planting it going well at this lime
and seme rain it forecast next week in the
dry areas. Com bids were pressured by
active planting, profit taking on the board,
and lade of export sales this week. Traders
believe we might have a large crop this
year with all the planting being reported.
Soybean planting has begun and it alio
going well. Favorable weather in the Mid
west this week hat been a blessing to far
mers. Export demand has been nil for
beans this week, also adding weakness to
bids. Lower meal demand was a declining
factor in beans bids. U.S. Export Sales:
