Demand signals include limited cash selling, nagging Northwest spring-wheat damage, and potential barter with foreign buyers. Wheat closed 4-1/4 higher as oats and rye fluctuated and soybeans fell. Wichita livestock reports showed cattle, calves, and hogs largely steady or weaker amid light demand, with sheep slow and lambs weak.
