Mexico purchased another 5.2 million bushels of 2o13 corn along with 1.3 million bushels of 2014 crop to help boost the market this morning. Soybeans found enough support from the demand side to bounce back after two days of losses pulled the market down toward the $13 level. Cold weather has winter wheat growers nervous, but heavier than expected snow levels could protect some of the wheat that is at risk with 6 to 8 days of below freezing temperatures with some below zero readings included on the horizon.
