Summary
St. Joseph, MO
October 4,2000
Report Supplied By USDA
Wheat and corn bids finished higher
again with planting and harvest delays
offering support. Soybean bids were
slightly lower in a correctional move.
Wheat steady to 11 cents higher. Corn
steady to 6 cents higher. Sorghum 1 cent
higher. Soybeans 1 to 3 cents lower.
Dryness in the southern Plains contin-
ued to slow hard red winter wheat plant
ing However, some rain is being forecast
for overnight. Another export donation
for wheat was announced, and reports
that Egypt is looking for 30,000 metric
tons of US wheat, added support.
Expectations for another cut in har
vest acres and optimism about export
sales improving kept corn bids on the
upward climb Some rain in the Corn
Belt area this week slowed harvest in
some places.
Soybean bids fell slightly lower, de
spite the overnight export sale to
Taiwan. This, however, doesn’t put this
weeks total very high. Harvest progress
continued to pressure bids.
