Wheat...West coast cash wheat bids found some footing on the bounce
across the futures complex on Thursday, leaving prices 15 to 35 cents
below week-ago levels. White wheat fared better than the protein wheats,
as basis strengthened against Chicago. Club wheat premiums improved by
15 cents over white wheat this week, as current hot and dry conditions
pose a threat to spring club wheat production zones in Washington.

right in-line with the prior week and right at the four-week average of
10.5 million bushels. Total commitments of 254 million bushels set 27%
behind a year ago and 12% below average. Hard red spring registered 3.7
million bushels and with 76 million in commitments, sets 21% behind a
