CBOT wheat ends narrowly mixed ahead of USDA report

CHICAGO, Aug 11 (Reuters) - U.S. wheat futures ended narrowly mixed on Monday as traders squared positions ahead of a monthly U.S. government crop report as prices remained anchored by abundant global supplies.

• The U.S. Department of Agriculture is due to release its crop production and stocks reports on Tuesday. Analysts expect the agency to slightly lower its U.S. wheat supply outlook, raise its global stocks view and make small adjustments to its estimates for U.S. wheat production by class.

• Hefty global supplies have anchored U.S. wheat prices recently as exporters like Russia and the European Union have ample supplies available.

• Russian wheat export prices rose last week amid fairly strong demand from exporters. Analysts expect export volumes to almost double in August from a month earlier.

• CBOT September soft red winter wheat WU25 settled 1/2 cent higher at $5.15 a bushel.

• K.C. September hard red winter wheat KWU25 last traded 1/4 cent lower at $5.18 a bushel.

• Minneapolis September spring wheat MWEU25 settled a penny higher at $5.77-3/4 a bushel.
