Feed weekly outlook: Steady now but supplies will weigh

By Phil Franz-Warkentin January 3, 2020

MarketsFarm — Recent strength in U.S. wheat futures may be lending some spillover support to Canadian feed grain bids, but large supplies and a lack of aggressive demand kept the market steady heading into the New Year.
