PARIS/SINGAPORE, Dec 5 (Reuters): Chicago soybean futures inched up on Thursday, underpinned by a lower dollar and higher crude oil as traders assessed broadly favourable crop weather in South America.
Corn ticked down while wheat rose, with the latter supported by mixed crop conditions in Australia and Russia.
Prices remained in a narrow range. Traders awaited clearer indications on potential trade tariffs under US President-elect Donald Trump's upcoming administration.
The most-active soybean contract on the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) was up 0.3 per cent at $9.86-3/4 a bushel by 1155 GMT.
CBOT wheat added 0.8 per cent to $5.52-1/2 a bushel while corn inched down 0.1 per cent to $4.29-3/4 a bushel.
