On Friday, the agricultural markets in America and Paris experienced a price increase in crops, with wheat, corn, and soybeans seeing a rise in Chicago. This is attributed to concerns over lower production in Europe and increased demand. However, in London, prices fell. The European Commission reduced its estimate of the EU's usable wheat production to a four-year low. Concerns about warm, dry weather in the Midwest were alleviated by rainfall and milder weather forecasts. Exporters sold a significant amount of US soybeans and soybean meal to China and Colombia, respectively.
