AGRI-INC.
Lancaster Farming, Saturday, February 21, 1998-AS
overnight sales cf wheat to South Korea
put some strength into wheat bids along
with reports of some tenders coming up.
Com bids were stronger on light fund buy
ing on the board and slow fanner selling.
Bean bids were up slightly due to improved
crush margins and higher soy- bean oil
demand. However, export demand con
tinues very slow for all commodities, limit
ing gains. Wheat mostly steady. Com
steady to 2 cents higher. Sorghum steady to
1 cent lower. Soybeans 1 to 5 cents higher.
