Summary
St. Joseph, MO
May 16,2001
Report Supplied By USDA
Grain and soybean bids moving back
toward year ago levels. Wheat steady to
3 cents lower. Corn mostly steady to 4
cents lower. Sorghum 9 cents higher.
Soybeans mostly 1 to S cents higher.
Recent hot, dry, windy weather
pushed wheat bids higher. However,
cooling temperatures and rains in the
forecast lowered bids for today.
Wheat quotes are still considerably
above a year ago. This reflecting reduced
acreage and relatively poor crop condi
tions. No huge export announcements
this week. River barge traffic expected to
be back near normal soon. Corn planting
virtually completed and producers m
most areas fulfilled early intentions.
Some low lying flooded bottom grounds
yet to be planted and it is getting rather
late in the season. Rains in the forecast
will perk up the recently emerged seed
lings. A decent export announcement on
the books today. Corn bids substantially
below this time a year ago and should be
drawing foreign interest. Soybean pro-

ducers are busy completing planting.
Rains may temporarily halt the drills but
it is plenty early yet for seeding soy
beans. Big US acreage intended to be
planted and good South American crops
dropping bids significantly, nearly 15
percent, under a year ago. Now this
should really get exporters attention but
we are in a global market and prices are
down everywhere.
