National Grain Market Summary:

Compared to Friday, cash bids for wheat, corn, and soybeans were lower. The broad rain coverage across the Corn Belt over the weekend along with the rain forecasted for the rest of the week has continued to improve the outlook for crop condition in corn, soybeans, and spring wheat aiding in the losses seen for the day. Wheat was mostly 2 3/4 to 6 cents lower. Corn was 5 1/2 to 12 1/2cents lower. Soybeans were 8 1/2 to 18 1/2 cents lower.
