Illinois country grain prices were
mixed on Thursday afternoon, with soybeans higher and corn and
wheat lower.
Technical buying at the Board of
Trade and stronger soybean product values helped to lift soybean
futures.
Corn futures were lower, weakened
by lower than expected weekly export sales figures.
In Northern and Western Illinois country grain dealers quoted
shelled corn bids 26 to 27 cents lower at 5.91-6.00.
Soybean bids traded 16 to 18 cents
higher at 13.48-13.60.
In Central Illinois country grain dealers quoted shelled corn
bids were 23 to 25 cents lower at 5.97-6.14.
Soybean bids were 11 to 14 cents
higher at 13.55-13.74.
In the Southern part of the state, shelled corn bids were 23 to
25 cents lower at 5.98-6.32.
Soybean bids were 13 to 14 cents
higher at 13.63-13.81.
Wheat bids were mostly 3 to 4
cents lower at 6.32-6.49.
