A6*Uncast«r Fanning, Saturday, August 5, 2000 Daily National Grain Market Summary St. Joseph, MO Wed Aug 02,2000 Report Supplied By USDA USDA-MO Dept Ag Market News Daily National Grain Market Sum mary Grain and soybean bids moved slightly higher due to weather forecasts calling for hotter, drier conditions next week in the Midwest and Corn Belt areas. Corn, however, showed some weakness due to continued good crop condition ratings and lack of export demand. Wheat bids advanced on very good overnight export order from Egypt. Wheat steady to 2 cents higher. Corn mixed, 2 cents higher to 1 cent lower. Sorghum 1 cent higher. Soybeans 3 to 5 cents higher Export interest picked up for wheat overnight as Egypt bought a sub- stan tial amount of soft white and soft red winter wheat. Reports that Libya and Tunisia may tender for US wheat soon was also positive for bids. The spring wheat tour reported higher expected yield potentia', limiting gains. Corn and soybean bids were slightly higher after three consecutive days of lower trends. Midwest weather forecasts are calling for hot, dry con- ditions next week which could hurt the potential record crop yields. Soy- bean meal bids were firmer on expanding livestock numbers and indications of possible in creases in hog herds. Corn bids showed slight weakness in areas due to poor export sales this week and continued good crop rating conditions.
