Wheat futures drift as traders react to government report
Wheat opened unsettled on the Board of Trade with December at 1.09 1/74 and May at 1.13 1/4.

Oats fell while corn and other grains showed smaller moves. Provisions remained dull but firmer with a positive stock market tone. Chicago cash quotes noted No. 1 mixed corn and various white and yellow corn grades, oats and rye bids, with minor changes across parities.
