Soybean bids fell sharply lower Tuesday and technical selling on the Board sent them plummet ing. Continued favorable harvest weather in South America remains a large weak- ening factor. However, slow export business and in dications that China may not be purchas ing as much US soybeans as earlier ex pected, hammered bean bids. Wheat steady to 1 cent higher Corn 2 to 3 cents lower. Sorghum 4 to 5 cents lower. Soybeans 10 to 13 cents lower. EXPORT SALES- PURCHASER COMMODITY TONNAGE DELIVERY DATE Nothing new to report.
