Illinois country grain prices were
mixed on Thursday afternoon, with soybeans and wheat higher and
corn slightly lower.
Technical buying at the Board of
Trade and stronger outside markets helped to lift soybeans and
wheat.
Slow export demand continues to
weigh on corn values.
In Northern and Western Illinois country grain dealers quoted
shelled corn bids 4 cents lower at 7.29-7.46.
Soybean bids were 10 to 12 cents
higher at 15.27-15.40.
In Central Illinois country grain dealers quoted shelled corn
bids were mostly 5 cents lower at 7.45-7.58.
Soybean bids were mostly 11 to 12
cents higher at 15.42-15.64.
In the Southern part of the state, shelled corn bids were mostly
4 to 6 cents lower at 7.27-7.61.
Soybean bids were 11 to 14 cents
higher at
15.33-15.57.
Wheat bids were 8 to 9 cents
higher at 8.36-8.59.
