CHICAGO, March 10 (Reuters) - U.S. corn and soybean futures
each fell about 2% on Wednesday, a day after monthly U.S.
Department of Agriculture (USDA) forecasts failed to offer fresh
bullish news, freeing traders to book profits following recent
multi-year highs, analysts said.
Wheat futures also declined, following the trend, with
beneficial moisture expected to bolster crop prospects in the
U.S. Plains this week.
Chicago Board of Trade May corn settled down 11-3/4
cents at $5.34 per bushel and May soybeans ended down
30-1/4 cents at $14.09-3/4 a bushel.
CBOT May wheat fell 4 cents to settle at $6.52-1/2 a
