Illinois country grain prices were
mixed on Thursday afternoon.
Higher soybean futures gained
strength from sharply higher soybean meal values.
Technical trading at the Board of
Trade and lower than expected weekly export sales figures
weighed on wheat prices.

shelled corn bids were steady to 2 cents lower at 7.30-7.58.
Soybean bids were 25 to 29 cents
higher at 14.35-14.50.
In Central Illinois country grain dealers quoted shelled corn
bids were steady to 3 cents lower at 7.42-7.58.
Soybean bids were 28 to 29 cents
higher at 14.58-14.73.
In the Southern part of the state, shelled corn bids were steady
at 7.22-7.68.
