Wheat futures closed higher Wednesday, while corn, soybeans, cattle and lean hogs finished lower.
- December corn settled at $4.80 3/4, down 2 cents.
- November soybeans settled at $12.77 1/4, down 6 1/2 cents.
- December Chicago wheat settled at $6.73 1/4, up 4 cents.
- December Kansas City hard red winter wheat settled at $7.15, up 2 3/4 cents.

- October feeder cattle settled at $340.950, down $2.125.
- October lean hogs settled at $75.550, down $0.050 on expiration day.
Corn and soybeans weakened as harvest pressure outweighed rain delays and new soybean export business. Chicago and Kansas City wheat gained as overseas demand offered support. Cattle futures fell during another quiet cash-trade day, while the expiring October hog contract eased a nickel as deferred hog contracts posted steeper losses.
Prices are final Barchart settlements for the Oct. 14 session.
