CHICAGO: Chicago Board of Trade corn futures rose to a seven-week high on Friday, recovering from early weakness on support from strong export demand for US supplies, traders said.
The most-active contract rose 5.7% this week, its third straight week of gains.
CBOT December corn futures settled just below their session high of $3.60 a bushel.
Profit-taking pressured corn early on Friday.
Private exporters reported the sale of 324,032 tonnes of corn for delivery to unknown destinations, the US Agriculture Department said on Friday.
