DAILY NATIONAL GRAIN
SUMMARY
Grain and soybean bids were moderately
higher, today, supported by some export
business, weather reports, and a bit of cor
rectional maneuvers by traders. Wheat 1 to
4 cents higher. Com 1 to 6 cents higher.
Sorghum 12 to 14 cents higher. Soybeans 2
to 6 cents higher. Well, wheat bids gained
additional ground today as Indonesia's
overnight purchase offered some strength.
A large factor for the higher trend was con
cerns over the dryness in parts of Texas
and the impact that the high winds and hot
temperatures could have on this years
wheat crop. The crop is now in the fill and
dough stages and expected yields could be
severely altered if some moisture is not
seen soon. Com and soybean tads turned
higher as traders saw the past three days of
lower bids as overdone. Com planting con
tinues to progress, however, more rain than
expected in the Eastern Com Belt along
with very hot temps in the west gave
strength to bids. South Korea's com purch
ase overnight was also a plus for com bids.

Soybean meal was slightly higher today
but ideas that the draught in Mexico could
expand into the US in June, offered the
most support to bids.
