US MIDDAY: soya and corn up; wheat dips

22 Aug, 2009

Chicago Board of Trade grains and soya complex at 10:30 am CDT (1530 GMT) early on Friday. Chicago Board of Trade soyabeans rallied early Friday led by front-month September on strong Chinese soya demand, worries that cool US weather will slow crop development and a weaker dollar, traders said.
September wheat down 2-1/2 cents at $4.66-1/2 a bushel. Turned lower amid ample supplies, slow export pace. Lower despite Statscan forecast for Canadian wheat crop to fall 17.5 percent from 2008. September corn up 1-3/4 cent at $3.20-1/4 a bushel; December up 1 at $3.25. September soyabeans up 23-3/4 cents at $10.23 a bushel; November up 19-1/4 at $9.76-1/4.
