Mumbai, 20 Mar (Commoditiescontrol): Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) wheat futures edged higher on Wednesday on worries over supplies from the Black Sea region.
The most-active wheat contract on the CBOT rose 0.1% to $5.53-1/4 a bushel, hovering near a one-week high hit on Tuesday.
Russian attacks on Ukrainian agriculture infrastructure over the weekend revived worries about disruption to massive grain exports through the Black Sea. Huge supplies of cheap Russian wheat continue to hang over the market.
Commodity funds were net buyers of CBOT wheat futures contracts on Tuesday, traders said.
