Illinois country grain prices were
mixed on Wednesday afternoon.
Concerns with crop conditions for
the growing wheat crop supported the stronger wheat values.
Corn prices were supported by
evening positions after the sharp sell offs.
Selling pressure and new crop
harvest in Brazil pushed soybeans lower.
In Northern and Western Illinois country grain dealers quoted
shelled corn bids were mostly 1 to 2 cents higher at 6.39-6.58.
Soybean bids were mostly 8 to 12
cents lower at 13.80-13.95.
In Central Illinois country grain dealers quoted shelled corn
bids were mostly 1 to 2 cents higher at 6.51-6.62.
Soybean bids were 8 to 14 cents
lower at 13.90-14.10.
In the Southern part of the state, shelled corn bids were mixed
at 6.28-6.72.
Soybean bids were 12 to 16 cents
lower at 13.94-14.10.
Wheat bids were 20 to 26
cents higher at 6.85-7.05.
