Just before 9:30 a.m. CT, December corn was up 3¢ at $4.08½ per bushel.

November soybeans were up 19½¢ at $10.07 per bushel.

“Any Chinese new-crop demand for any commodity would be favorable as there are no sales listed from the U.S.” Karl Setzer, partner with Consus Ag Consulting, said,” Trade is also overlooking the fact U.S. new-crop corn sales are over twice last year’s pace at this time. Instead, the market remains wholly focused on production, and until this changes, upside potential may be limited. The majority of the session will be spent getting positions in place ahead of [Tuesday’s] USDA World Agricultural Supply and Demand update.”
