Wheat poised for rally, with spring wheat production in focus due to dryness in northern US Plains. Concerns about harvest shortfalls in Black Sea region also supportive.

Spring wheat yields in southern and east-central North Dakota are well below average as drought slashed production potential, scouts on an annual crop tour said on Tuesday.

CORN - Steady to up 2 cents per bushel

Corn firming on technical buying but overnight rains in western parts of the US Midwest limiting gains.

Support for benchmark CBOT December corn futures noted overnight near Tuesday's low of $5.42-1/4 a bushel.

CBOT December corn last traded up 1-1/4 cents at $5.47-1/2 per bushel.

SOYBEANS - Up 6 to 10 cents per bushel

Soybeans seen firmer on bargain buying after four straight days of declines.

CBOT November soybeans hit resistance at their 10-day moving average.
