Summary
St. Joseph, MO
November 26,2002
Report Supplied By USDA
Wheat traded mixed after higher bids
Monday. Continued lack of fresh export
news added weakness. However, a slight
drop in winter wheat crop ratings limited
losses. Corn bids were slightly lower for
the second day with harvest progress
showing 97 percent complete. Soybean
bids firmed up today due to fund buying
on the Board and stronger soy oil trade.
Very good overnight export sales for soy
beans lent strength. Wheat mixed, 9 cents
lower to 8 cents higher. Com steady to 2
cents lower. Sorghum steady. Soybeans 1
cent higher.
