DAILY NATIONAL GRAIN
SUMMARY
Grain and soybean bids traded lower
with very slow export business and spring
planting progress the major pressure fac
tors. Wheat 3 to 13 cents lower. Com
steady to 3 cents lower. Sorghum 4 to 6
cents lower. Soybeans steady to 2 cents
lower. Wheat bids finished lower today, as
lack of fresh export sales and spring wheat
planting weighed on bids. Rainfall in Mid?
keeping farmers cut of fields and delaying
spring planting. Com and soybean bids
were also lower in dull trading on the
Board today. Rainy conditions across the
Midwest continued to slow up plant- ing
but many areas already planted. Another
day with no export sale announcements for
both com and beans added pressure to bids.
