Wheat bids traded higher with sup
port stemming from China’s substantial
overnight purchase. Corn and soybean
bids were underpinned by higher wheat
bids along with continued dry conditions
in Argentina. There were no ex- port
sales reported for either corn or beans
mid-week but ideas interest will pickup,
boosted bids. Wheat 1 to 3 cents higher
up 1 to 10 cents higher in St. Louis. Corn
steady to 1 cent lower. Sorghum steady
to 1 cent higher. Soybeans 2 to 4 cents
higher.
