                Illinois country grain prices were 
				lower on Friday afternoon. 
				 
              
                Corn futures values were pressured 
				downward with the negative news from China's rejection of GMO 
				corn and GMO DDGs. 
				 
              
                Soybeans found higher prices in 
				the final trading minutes after trading lower for most of the 
				day. 
				 
              
                Wheat is still being pressured 
				lower by last week's record wheat estimate for Canada. 
 				In Northern and Western Illinois country grain dealers quoted 
				shelled corn bids were 6 to 9 cents lower at 3.94-4.17.  
              
                Soybean bids were 2 cents higher 
				at 12.95-13.15.
 In Central Illinois country grain 
				dealers quoted shelled corn bids were 11 to 12 cents lower at 
				3.98-4.12.
 
              
                Soybean bids were 1 to 4 cents 
				higher at 13.12-13.32.
 				In the Southern part of the state, shelled corn bids were 4 to 6 
				cents lower at 4.11-4.25.  
              
                Soybean bids were 6 to 10 cents 
				higher at 13.22-13.44. 
				 
              
                Wheat bids were steady to 13 cents 
				lower at 6.00-6.42.
