Daily National Grain Market Summary
Grain and soybean bids climbed higher,
Wednesday. Expoi\ optimism, fund buying
on the Boards, and some positioning ahead
of Friday’s USDA reports were all factors.
Wheat steady to 2 cents higher. Com I to 3
cents higher. Sorghum 9 cents higher. Soy
beans 4 to 7 cents higher. Fair overnight
wheat sale and USDA opened a tender last
night fat 11 million bushels of hard ted
winter wheat expected to be donated to
Russia. Recent rainfall was beneficial and
some areas showed imptovment In crop
conditions but other areas remain dry. Com
and soybean bids were up moderately
higher. Export sales of com is expected
tomorrow with estimates of 42 million
bushels. High fuel costs have begun to
worry farmers and may affect the amount
of acreage to be planted. Soybean bids
were supported by improved meal demand
and delayed harvest in Brazil due to tains.
Export demand continued slow for beans
this week.
