ReutersDec 22, 2025 11:20 PM

- U.S. corn and soy basis bids were steady to higher at river terminals in the U.S. Midwest on Monday. They were flat to lower at elevators and processors.

  • Corn bids rose by 3 cents at a river terminal in Morris, Illinois. They fell by 3 cents at an elevator in Blair, Nebraska.

  • Soy bids rose by 5 cents at the Morris, Illinois river terminal. They fell by 15 cents at a processor in Sioux City, Iowa.

  • On the Chicago Board of Trade, soybean futures rose as the oilseed found support in a crude oil rally and an easing dollar =USD, while corn tracked soybeans higher, buoyed by export demand.
