CBOT Trends-Wheat and soy up 1-3 cents per bushel, corn down 2-4 cents
CHICAGO, Sept 8 (Reuters) - The following are U.S. expectations for the resumption of grain and soy complex trading at the Chicago Board of Trade at 8:30 a.m. CDT (1330 GMT) on Monday.
WHEAT - Up 1 to 3 cents per bushel
CBOT wheat Wv1 rose slightly overnight, though analysts said world supplies look adequate.
Analyst APK-Inform sharply increased its forecast for Ukraine's 2025 grain harvest and exports, while consultancy Sovecon raised its forecast for Russia's wheat crop.
CBOT December soft red winter wheat WZ25 was last up 2 cents at $5.21-1/4 per bushel. K.C. December hard red winter wheat KWZ25 was 2-1/2 cents higher at $5.07-3/4 per bushel, and Minneapolis December wheat MWEZ25 was up 1/4 cent at $5.66-1/4 a bushel.
CORN - Down 2 to 4 cents per bushel
CBOT corn Cv1 eased under pressure from expectations for a record-breaking U.S. harvest.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture is expected to issue its first estimate on U.S. corn harvesting progress in a weekly report later on Monday.
On Friday, the agency is slated to update its corn and soy production and yield estimates in a monthly report.
CBOT December corn CZ25 was last down 1-3/4 cents at $4.16-1/4 per bushel. The contract pulled back after rising on Friday to its highest level since July 22.
SOYBEANS - Up 1 to 3 cents a bushel
CBOT soybean futures edged higher overnight as traders waited to see how USDA adjusts its U.S. yield estimates in Friday's report.
The absence of China, the world's biggest soy importer, from the U.S. market continued to hang over futures prices.
China's soybean imports rose to their highest-ever level for the month of August, a Reuters calculation of customs data showed, as buyers snapped up large volumes from South America amid ongoing Sino-U.S. trade tensions.
Farmers in Brazil's southern Parana state started planting the 2025/26 soybean crop, AgRural said.
CBOT November soybeans SX25 were last up 1-1/4 cents at $10.28-1/4 per bushel.
