Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) live cattle edged higher on Wednesday, with tight US supplies keeping prices near contract highs, reported Reuters.
A lack of fresh fundamental inputs limited the gains.

August feeder cattle fell 1.2 cents to 246.8 cents per pound. August lean hogs gained 1.65 cents to 97.925 cents per pound.
