Illinois country grain prices were
lower on Monday afternoon.
Technical selling at the Board of
Trade and profit taking by traders sent prices lower.
Many traders await the USDA's crop
report to be released on Wednesday morning.

report, the USDA estimated the Illinois corn crop to be 21%
harvested, compared to 12% one week ago.
In Northern and Western Illinois country grain dealers quoted
shelled corn bids 16 to 20 cents lower at 7.59-7.88.
Soybean bids were 15 to 18 cents
lower at
16.86-17.03.

bids were 16 to 17 cents lower at 7.83-7.98.
Soybean bids were mostly 17 to 18
cents lower at 17.12-17.21.
In the Southern part of the state, shelled corn bids were 16 to
17 cents lower at 7.81-8.10.
