Soy recovers after hitting one-week low on Trump victory
Adds closing prices in paragraphs 8-9

CHICAGO, Nov 6 (Reuters) -Chicago Board of Trade soybean futures recovered on Wednesday after sliding earlier to a one-week low as Donald Trump's victory in the U.S. presidential election fuelled concerns over prospects of another trade war with top-importer China.
Corn futures reached a one-month high, and wheat also advanced.
Initial declines in agricultural markets were seen as overdone, analysts said, because the U.S. would not feel the impact from Trump's trade policies until after he is inaugurated in January.
Trump, who defeated Vice President Kamala Harris in Tuesday's election, has rattled grain traders by pledging to impose a 60% tariff on Chinese goods and at least a 10% levy on all other imports.
The move would likely cause China to retaliate by cutting purchases of U.S. crops at a time when it has already shifted more business to Brazil, the world's biggest soy supplier, traders said.
But it may be next summer before U.S. farmers see a big impact from a new trade war because China will have already made a seasonal shift to buying South American soybeans by the time Trump takes office, said Arlan Suderman, chief commodities economist for broker StoneX.
"The election of Trump can create a little pressure with profit-taking but it's not a big game changer right away," Argus analyst Maxence Devillers said. "It's a risk but one that will come later."
Most actively traded CBOT soybeans Sv1 closed 2 cents higher at $10.03-3/4 per bushel after falling earlier to $9.82.
CBOT wheat Wv1 edged up 3/4 cent at $5.73-1/4 a bushel, while corn Cv1 jumped 7-3/4 cents to close at $4.26-1/4 per bushel and reached its highest price since Oct. 8.
CBOT soyoil BOZ24 rallied to its highest level since July on expectations that Trump may curtail shipments of Chinese used cooking oil to the U.S., which has displaced soyoil and canola oil, analysts said.
Solid U.S. export demand also underpinned soy and corn futures before the U.S. Department of Agriculture is slated to update monthly crop estimates on Friday.
