At 10:01 am CST (1601 GMT), CBOT wheat was down 1-1/2 to 3 cents per bushel, with December down 2 at $3.02-3/4 per bushel. March was down 2-3/4 at $3.18-1/4. The new low for December is $3.02-1/4 per bushel, below the previous low of $3.03-3/4.
Pit sources said Iowa Grain was the main seller of 500 December and Refco Inc sold 200 March.
