Wheat futures ended mostly 10 to 14 cents higher in Chicago, mostly 9 to 13 cents higher in Kansas City and mostly 10 to 12 cents higher in Minneapolis. Much of the strength in wheat futures today was tied to pressure on the U.S. dollar, which encourage short-covering in wheat. Hopes for improved demand for U.S. wheat were also supportive, however, as U.S. wheat is competitively priced and there has been a recent pickup in export demand.
