An Agriculture Department analysis flags a weak wheat price outlook for 1984-85 due to a huge world supply from recent bumper U.S. harvests.

Corn projections show a near 90 percent rise from 1983, with a 7.93 billion bushel crop and Oct. 1 carryover near 520 million bushels, potentially rising to 1.25 billion by Oct. 1985 if harvests rebound.
