Wheat and corn futures rose Monday after storms in the Midwest over the weekend threatened both crops.
Wheat for December delivery rose 7.75 cents to $6.9475 a bushel and December corn rose 6 cents to $4.4925 a bushel.
Weekend
storms delayed the harvest of the corn crop and also caused delays in
planting the winter wheat crop, said Todd Hultman, a grain analyst with
DTN/The Progressive Farmer in Omaha, Neb.
