Traders are anticipating Friday’s USDA production and stock reports Wheat steady to 1 cent higher. Corn steady to 1 cent higher. Sorghum steady. Soybeans 1 to 4 cents higher. Mostly steady wheat bids were due to traders position squaring ahead of the upcoming government reports due out Friday. Some concerns exist for hard red winter wheat crops as warm weather re turns to forecasts. Continued chaos in Argentina and dry weather in South America remain pres sure factors in corn and soybean bids. Spillover strength in bean pits over the past couple of days kept bids firm.
