Illinois country grain prices were mixed on Tuesday afternoon.

Exports to China gave soybeans substantial gains which pushed January to its highest close in 6 weeks.

Excess corn supplies with lack of demand are weighing on the corn market.

And wheat has no positive news to break it out of its existing values.

In Northern and Western Illinois country grain dealers quoted shelled corn bids were mixed at 4.07-4.26.

Soybean bids were 10 cents higher at 12.82-13.09.

In Central Illinois country grain dealers quoted shelled corn bids were 2 cents lower at 4.10-4.27.

Soybean bids were 10 to 11 cents higher at 12.96-13.14.

In the Southern part of the state, shelled corn bids were 1 to 4 cents lower at 4.02-4.29.

Soybean bids were 4 to 14 cents higher at 12.75-13.18.

Wheat bids were steady to 1 cent lower at 6.10-6.48.
