Summary
St. Joseph, MO
July 10,2002
Report Supplied By USDA
Rains that swept through much of the
Midwest Tuesday night into Wednesday
have the corn trade lower. With the rain,
came cooler temperatures which are pro
ducing close to ideal conditions as com
enters the pollination stage, and is having
an adverse effect on the market. The
weather negativity spilled over into the
soybean market as well, although traders
are reluctant to take the market too low
as hot and dry weather is sure to return
before long. Also, with the later bean and
corn planting dates this year the row
crops will be more susceptible to the late
summer heat waves. The wheat trade
held its own as small overnight export
news added support, also lower 2002 crop
production numbers continues to support
the wheat market.
Wheat 1 to 4 cents higher, with Port
land White Wheat 3 cents lower. Corn 2
to 4 cents lower. Soybeans 1 to 5 cents
lower, with Southern lowa reporting
prices 10 to 14 cents lower. Sorghum fol
lowing the other row-crops, mostly 7 cents
lower, with Gulf bids 6 to 10 cents higher.
