Daily National Grain Market Summary

   Grains closed near unchanged from Monday’s close as grains seemed unsure of 
which direction to move as buyers were hesitant to establish positions after 
Monday’s sharp losses.  Corn harvest remains at a brisk pace with 79 percent 
completed with soybeans not far behind at 71 percent harvested and with winter 
wheat plantings 71 percent completed.  Wheat closed slightly mixed.  Corn traded 
1-3 cents higher.  Soybeans closed mostly 1 cent higher.
