Corn futures rise after large grain sale to Mexico

CHICAGO, Oct 16 (Reuters) -Chicago Board of Trade corn futures rose on Wednesday after the U.S. Department of Agriculture reported the biggest daily export sale of the grain in more than a year.
The market recovered after falling a day earlier to its lowest level in nearly a month, as U.S. farmers are speeding along with their autumn harvests.
The USDA confirmed in a daily reporting system that exporters sold 1.6 million metric tons of U.S. corn to Mexico, including about 1 million metric tons for delivery in the marketing year that ends on Aug. 31, 2025.
The agency reported another 332,000 metric tons of U.S. corn were sold to unknown buyers for delivery by Aug. 31.
Processors in Mexico step up to buy large quantities of U.S. corn to take advantage of weak prices at harvest time, exporters said. The last biggest daily export sale of U.S. corn reported by USDA was 1.7 million metric tons sold to Mexico on Sept. 25, 2023.
"It's cheaper corn than we've had for a while," said Matt Wiegand, commodity broker for FuturesOne. "You've got good value from an end user's perspective."
Most-active corn futures Cv1 were up 5-1/2 cents at $4.06-3/4 a bushel by 12:50 p.m. CDT (1750 GMT), after holding the $4 level during Tuesday's fall to a one-month low.
CBOT soybeans Sv1 fell 8-1/2 cents to $9.82-1/2 a bushel but remained above a 1-1/2 month low set on Tuesday. CBOT wheat Wv1 traded up 7-1/4 cents at $5.86-3/4 a bushel, after setting a three-week low.
Forecasts for beneficial rains in dry crop-growing areas of South America loomed over the corn and soy markets. For wheat, rains in parched regions of top-supplier Russia limited gains, analysts said.
In the U.S., dry weather has accelerated corn and soybean harvesting.
The corn harvest was 47% complete by Sunday, above the five-year average of 39%, and the soybean harvest was 67% finished, above its average of 51%, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture data.
