Corn and soybean futures moved higher after USDA reported supplies as of Sept, 1 a little under average trade forecasts.  However, the corn’s 1.738 billion bushels and soybeans’ 197 million were up a little from year ago levels.
Wheat futures moved higher after USDA trimmed its production estimate from the August number. All wheat production
is now at 2.31 billion bushels, with reductions noted in spring wheat and soft red winter.
