Illinois country grain prices were mixed on Monday afternoon, with soybeans sharply higher and corn and wheat slightly lower.

Limit up gains in soybean meal helped to lift soybean futures.

Very good demand for cash soybeans also supported higher prices.

In Northern and Western Illinois country grain dealers quoted shelled corn bids were 2 to 3 cents lower at 6.74-6.86.

Soybean bids were 19 to 30 cents higher at 15.78-16.02.

In Central Illinois country grain dealers quoted shelled corn bids were mostly 1 cent higher at 6.75-6.91.

Soybean bids were 19 to 24 cents higher at 15.92-16.15.

In the Southern part of the state, shelled corn bids were 2 to 3 cents lower at 6.81-6.96.

Soybean bids were 19 to 30 cents higher at 16.11-16.40.

Wheat bids were 3 to 4 cents lower at 6.40-6.60.
