CBOT corn for July delivery fell 0.5% to $4.44 a bushel after weekend rain fell on growing areas. Soybeans and wheat also declined on expectations that supply will outweigh demand.

Rain-improved crop conditions and ample supply are pressuring corn and wheat prices lower, while the screwworm detection is a background risk for cattle markets.
