At the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, live cattle ended the day higher, and feeders were lower watching corn and direct markets develop. April live cattle closed $.15 higher at $146.02 and June live cattle closed $.40 higher at $141.90. March feeder cattle closed $1.20 lower at $164.22 and April feeder cattle closed $1.72 lower at $169.12.
Cattle country was quiet on Tuesday with very little direct cash cattle trade activity. Packer inquiry was limited and bids failed to surface.
