National Grain Market St. Joseph, MO Tue Dec 29, 1998 USDA-MO Dept Ag Market News DAILY NATIONAL GRAIN SUMMARY Grain and soybean bids finished near steady, today, after lower trends earlier. Wheat steady to 3 cents higher. Com steady to 1 cent lower. Sorghum 4 cents higher to I cent lower. Soybeans 1 to 3 cents higher. Wheat bids were slightly higher as traders expect USDA to tender soon for the Russian aid package. Bitter cold temperatures are forecast this week across the US causing concern over win terkill in winter wheat areas. Com bids were narrowly mixed as traders anticipate today's USDA Hog and Kg report which was positive. Some weakness was noted as export demand remained slow and farmer selling picked up slightly. Soybean bids were slightly higher as crude oil prices moved upward. U.S. Export Sales: Purchasers Commod ities Tonnage Del Dale Nothing new to report.
