WEEKLY NATIONAL GRAIN MARKET REVIEW
Compared to last week, corn and wheat lost ground while soybeans maintained
and upward trend. Grain trade this week seemed to position itself for Friday’s
USDA Supply and Demand Report with trade watching for small demand changes and
South American production changes. South America’s weather remains a concern
with its recent pattern of dry in the south, wet in the north which may cut into
production. Corn traded with double-digit losses on Thursday as outside markets
were negative and sharp gains in the U.S. dollar. Export sales were once again
disappointing with only 168.900 mt (6.6 mb), and 8500 mt cancelled for a total
of 160.400 mt (6.3 mb). Soybeans had very good export sales this week totaling
1.667,200 mt (61.3 mb) with 896,200 mt (32.9 mb) for current marketing year.
Wheat had wek export sales totaling 300,800 mt (11.1 mb) with 290,800 mt (10.7
mb) for current marketing year. Wheat closed 10-31 cents lower for the week.
Corn traded 23-30 cents lower. Sorghum closed 53-65 cents lower. Soybeans
traded 15-19 cents higher.
