Illinois country grain prices were
mixed on Tuesday afternoon.
Hot and dry weather conditions
again supported higher grain futures at the Board
of Trade, with stronger soybean meal values helping to lift
soybean values.

report, the Illinois corn crop placed only 11% in the good to
excellent category, with the states
soybean crop placing 17% in the good to excellent range.
