- Chicago Board of Trade corn futures fell on Monday amid spillover pressure from contract lows in the neighboring wheat market, traders said.

  • CBOT corn came under additional pressure from U.S. planting progress, analysts said.

  • U.S. farmers were estimated to have planted 25% of the nation's corn crop as of Sunday, a Reuters survey showed ahead of the release of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's weekly crop progress report at 3 p.m. CDT (2000) GMT). A week ago, 12% of the crop had been planted.

  • Traders said hopes were fading for quick progress in negotiations to cool the U.S.-China trade war.

  • CBOT July corn CN25 ended down 2-1/4 cents at $4.83-1/4 per bushel.
