DAILY NATIONAL GRAIN
SUMMARY
Grain and soybean bids closed higher
mid-week, supported by hot dry condi
tions across the Western Com Belt and
Southwest areas. Some over- night export
sa? of wheat and com also offered strength
to bids. Wheat mostly 2 to 4 cents higher.
Com 2 to 3 cents higher. Sorghum 3 cents
higher. Soybeans 2 to 5 cents higher.
Winds, hot t?and al?dy dry conditions have
traders con- cemed over crop conditions.
Com planting nearly finished and soybeans
are around SO percent complete. Forecasts
call for a small chance for rain but the
moisture that has fallen has been spotty.
The Southeast US continues to be very dry.
Winter wheat harvest has moved into
South- em Oklahoma.
