# U.S. grains: Corn ticks up on export demand, easing harvest pressure - Grainews

> Chicago corn futures ticked up on export demand and easing harvest pressure, with the USDA confirming sales of about 781,000 tonnes of US corn to Mexico. Soybeans eased after USDA confirmed sales to China and undisclosed buyers, and wheat slipped on US Plains rains while drought and poor Australian crops limited losses.
