Wheat

Wheat weekly export shipments and sales were a little over 400,000t.

Corn

Corn markets were described as being perhaps a little too cheap.  Indications that US growers are already gearing up for harvest suggest yield may trim a little. World exportable stocks of corn are falling and cheap prices have encouraged feed demand. Export sales reported last week were 175,400t current crop and 525,000t new crop.

Soybeans

Though the US weekly soybean sales report was down last week, the weekly export shipment figure was 973,100t, up 55pc on previous.
