Corn futures at the Chicago Board of Trade were higher early on Wednesday on spillover support from surging soy and a strong wheat market, traders said.
At 10:27 am CDT (1527 GMT), CBOT corn was up 2 to 2-3/4 cents per bushel. December was up 2-1/4 at $2.04-3/4 per bushel.
Gains in corn were limited by bearish feed grain production and ending stocks numbers in USDA's October crop report that was released early Wednesday, traders and analysts said.
The US Agriculture Department forecast 2005 US corn production at 10.857 billion bushels, about in line with an average of trade estimates for 10.881 billion.
