Summary
St. Joseph, MO
July 3,2001
Report Supplied By USDA
Grain and soybean bids continued
their upward swing due mainly to tech
nical buying on the board and some
weather concerns. Wheat 1 to 7 cents
higher. Corn 3 to 4 cents higher. Sor
ghum 14 to IS cents higher. Soybeans
steady to 3 cents higher, with Central
Illinois 2 cents lower.
Slight gains in wheat pits a reaction to
fund buying after prices dropped so low.
