						 | The Poultry Site

> US grain futures were mostly firmer in overnight trading on August 26, 2019, with corn up 2 to 3 cents, soybeans up about 13 cents and wheat steady to 1 cent higher. Trump said China wanted to return to trade talks and announced a tentative US-Japan agreement that would open Japanese farm markets.

## Why it matters

Renewed US-China talks and Japanese corn purchase intentions support export demand expectations, though Chinese officials did not confirm the call, so the price lift may be fragile.
