> U.S. lean hog futures fell to contract lows amid weak pork demand and plentiful supplies. U.S. pork exports were down 7% by volume and 14% by value year over year in September, while cash cattle prices fell as much as $11 per hundredweight in Iowa and Nebraska, weighing on live cattle futures to an 11-month low.
