Ten days of cold weather worry farmers about winter wheat damage though final extent awaits growing weather. Wheat prices fell 3 to 6 cents per bushel due to moisture in the west and unsettled Europe. Wheat in carrots trades around 6 cents on track in major Ohio markets with elevator prices near the low eighties after freight and handling deductions.
