The USDA reports that American international sales of wheat and corn have exceeded expectations, while soybean sales have not met the consensus. Weather conditions in South America, particularly in the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange's downgrade of corn and soybean growing conditions, are also impacting grain markets.
