WEEKLY NATIONAL GRAIN MARKET REVIEW
Compared to last week, grain bids were lower with soybeans trading higher.
Soybeans saw sharp gains on strong buying interest and overnight export news.

along with fears of Brazilian port strike. A winter storm hammered the Plains
and Midwest dumping heavy snow and ice which pressured wheat as moisture made it
to the dry areas of winter wheat region. Corn bids saw slight declines in
reaction to the lower wheat and bearish ethanol production numbers. Wheat was
2-19 cents lower. Yellow Corn was 4-6 cents lower. Sorghum was 1-7 cents
lower. Soybeans were 67-70 cents higher.
