Illinois country grain prices were
higher on Thursday afternoon.
Higher soybean futures were
supported by higher than expected weekly export sales figures.
Some traders evened positions and
took profits ahead of Friday's USDA crop reports.
In Northern and Western Illinois country grain dealers quoted
shelled corn bids were 2 to 3 cents higher at 7.01-7.23.
Soybean bids were mixed at
14.63-14.87.
In Central Illinois country grain dealers quoted shelled corn
bids were 3 to 4 cents higher at 7.04-7.16.
Soybean bids were 7 to 8 cents
higher at 14.85-14.96.
In the Southern part of the state, shelled corn bids were mostly
2 cents higher at 6.88-7.27.
Soybean bids were 6 to 7 cents
higher at 14.88-15.12.
Wheat bids were 12 to 15 cents
higher at 6.88-7.09.
