DAILY NATIONAL GRAIN
SUMMARY
Grain and soybean bids gained some
ground after yesterday's declines. Light
overnight export wheat sales and higher
com tads gave wheat bids a boost. Com
and soybean bids were stronger on good
export interest and some short covenngs
on the Board. Wheat steady to 4 cents high
er. Com 2 to 4 cents higher. Sorghum 6
cents higher. Soybeans Bto 11 cents high
er. South Korea's overnight wheat purch
ase offered wheat some support. However,
improved harvest weather and good yields
being reported, limited gains. Com moved
slightly higher on indications Japan bought
some U.S. com overnight, around four mil
lion bushels, but nothing has been con
firmed. Also supporting com bids were
reports the Chinese crop is at 120 and 124
million metric tons which is below the 128
mmt being used by USDA Sharp advances
were seen in soybean bids on fund buying
amid improved Chinese and Indian interest
in oilseeds and products. Some rainfall in
the Eastern Com Belt is expected to add
some late bushels to the crop. However,
some areas in the Delta are still dry and
crop condition ratings could still be
lowered.
