Grain Market
Summary
St. Joseph, MO
May 28,2003
Report Supplied By USD A
Grain and soybean bids were slightly to
moderately lower for the day.
Weakness stemmed from lack of fresh
export interest and good planting pro
gress. Light rainfall was reported in parts
ot the Midwest and Corn Belt areas but
planters still made some headway. Winter
wheat bids were under light harvest pres
sure. Corn saw a small overseas purchase
by Taiwan but other commodities were
left out. Good planting weather is forecast
for much of the Corn Belt region tomor-
row. Much of todays declines were techni-
cal corrections. Wheat steady to 9 cents
lower.
Com steady to 2 cents lower. Sorghum
1 cent lower. Soybeans 5 to 8 cents lower
