Corn futures at the Chicago Board of Trade were holding firm early on Tuesday amid weather jitters and on a strong rally in wheat, traders said. At 10:16 am CDT (1516 GMT), CBOT corn was up 1/2 to 1-1/4 cents per bushel. May was up 1-1/4 at $2.01 per bushel. July was up 1-1/4 at $2.09. Goldenberg Hehmeyer bought 400 July and Cargill Investor Services bought 100 July, traders said. Traders said the corn market found a bit of fundamental footing because of drier-than-desired weather in parts of the eastern US Midwest, traders said.
