CHICAGO, Oct 22 (Reuters) -Chicago soybean and corn futures turned higher on Tuesday as a flurry of export sales helped stem market pressure from a fast-moving U.S. harvest and improved planting weather in South America, analysts said.
Wheat also gained strength from corn futures and as market players weighed Russian steps to regulate wheat exports, including through a reported price floor for selling in international tenders.
Market participants are focused on demand when global grain supplies are voluminous and U.S. farmers are harvesting a massive crop, analysts said. Typically, U.S. grain prices are lower in the fall, as new crop arrives at rural grain elevators and commercial merchandisers.
The most-active soybean contract on the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) Sv1 was up 14-1/2 cents at $9.95-1/2 a bushel at 1615 GMT, while CBOT corn Cv1 was up 6-1/2 cents at $4.16 a bushel. CBOT wheat Wv1 was up 5 cents at $5.77-1/4 a bushel.
"There's been no harvest pressure," Tom Fritz, broker at EFG Group, said. "The producer doesn't want to sell anything. We've got some export demand in fear of the possible outcome of the election."
U.S. soybean export premiums are at their highest in 14 months, as grain merchants race to ship out a record large U.S. harvest ahead of the U.S. presidential election and fear renewed trade tensions with top importer China, traders and analysts said.
Corn and soybean sales on Monday and an additional corn sale early on Tuesday suggested buying interest after corn and soybean futures hit multi-week lows last week.
The U.S. soybean and corn harvest were both ahead of their five-year average pace, according to a weekly U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) report issued after Monday's market close.
For wheat, showers in parts of southern Russia and the U.S. Plains were expected to help planting and ease concerns over dryness.
