US Cash Grains-Corn bids mixed as futures bounce back

ReutersJul 9, 2025 11:08 PM

- Spot basis bids for corn were mixed in a spot check of elevators, processors, river and rail terminals in the U.S. Midwest on Wednesday as futures recovered after hitting new contract lows.

  • The corn basis rose at a processor in Decatur, Illinois, a river terminal in Davenport, Iowa and a rail terminal in Columbus, Ohio.

  • The corn basis fell at an elevator in Council Bluffs, Iowa and a river terminal in Morris, Illinois.

  • The soybean basis improved at the Morris river terminal and a processor in Lafayette, Indiana.

  • Corn futures rebounded after favorable crop conditions pushed the commodity to life of contract lows earlier in the session.

  • CBOT December corn CZ25 finished up 1-1/4 cents at $4.15-1/2 a bushel.

  • CBOT November soybeans SX25 ended 10-1/4 cents lower at $10.07-1/4 a bushel.
