December corn fell 4.75 cents to $3.93 1/2 and November soybeans dropped 20 cents to $9.61 1/2 on August 22. Crop tour scouts reported record Illinois corn yields and USDA showed new-crop corn and soybean sales, including a flash sale of 110,490 MT to Mexico.
Strong crop tour yields point to a large US harvest that weighs on futures, while steady export sales provide some support. A stronger dollar also pressured grain prices that day.
