   Crop Prices End Higher Helped by Friday's False Rumor

   A false rumor floated by Reuters Friday morning that Russia was considering
a temporary ban on exports of wheat and sunflower oil triggered a burst of
short-covering at the end of an otherwise bearish week, prices which held
positive ground even after Reuters later refuted the rumor in a second article.
