DAILY NATIONAL GRAIN SUM

Grain and soybean bids turned mod
erately to sharply higher, today, as weather
seems to be the biggest factor, especially
for wheat and com. Wheat 2 to 4 cents
higher. Com 2 to 4 cents higher. Sorghum
3 cents higher. Soybeans 2 to 7 cents high
er. Wheat bids climbed higher as traders
fear the frost expected in hard red winter
wheat areas over the next few days could
cause damage. Parts of western Kansas are
forecast to drop below 20 degrees in the
country. This is where 20 to 25 percent of
the winter wheat crop is repotted as joint
ing or beyond. Good overnight export sales
also boosted bids. Sharp gains were seen in
com and bean bids due to cold conditions
and tain are forecast for the Western Corn
belt area. Early planting of com has slowed
this week, already due to wet weather.
South Korea's com purchase was suppor
tive. Soybean bids followed com and
wheat higher but stronger oil and meal
demand also added support. Soy oil is up
sharply on higher world veg oil prices.
USDA reported soy oil stocks/use ratio the
lowest in four years.
