Illinois country grain prices were
mostly higher on Thursday afternoon.
Technical trading at the Board of
Trade helped to support higher corn and soybean values.
Wheat prices were given a boost
from good export interest.
In the cash grain markets, the
cash soybean basis continues to weaken with losses of 17 to 20
cents noted.
In Northern and Western Illinois country grain dealers quoted
shelled corn bids were 3 to 4 cents higher at 6.91-7.08.
Soybean bids were 12 to 16 cents
lower at 15.00-15.24.
In Central Illinois country grain dealers quoted shelled corn
bids were 3 to 6 cents higher at 6.89-7.02.
Soybean bids were 17 to 29 cents
lower at 15.21-15.50.
In the Southern part of the state, shelled corn bids were mostly
2 to 3 cents higher at 6.68-7.07.
Soybean bids were 11 to 12 cents
lower at 15.24-15.67.
