CBOT wheat, Kansas wheat, spring wheat, CBOT corn and soybeans all closed higher on October 16, 2018, following strength in beans and corn. US weekly wheat inspections were 28.9% behind last year, and winter wheat planting was reported at 65% versus 67% the prior week.
Syria and Jordan were set to tender for wheat that week.
Routine daily wrap with grains higher on technical buying and harvest delays, but weak export sales mean the rally needs more demand to be sustained. Price direction is modestly bullish for wheat and corn.
