Corn, soybean and wheat markets were lower near midday on Thursday as weather forecasts favor drier conditions in the Midwest next week, which should aid the corn and soybean harvests.
The bearish weather outlook offset support from the better-than-expected weekly corn and soybean export sales
that came out earlier in the day.
