Wheat and corn continued to slide on Wednesday with traders buying into the idea that Russia will allow Ukrainian exports to resume and with corn planting picking up that also pressured the market.

It was a corrective day in cattle and hogs at well. Jim McCormick of AgMarket.Net discusses the action with Michelle Rook.
