CEREAL prices have continued their slow decline. There was a slight recovery mid-week, but this was not thought to be any significant change in direction. Trade from farms is slow at these new levels but so is the demand.

Oilseed markets have remained unchanged but are directionless, apart from following slight changes in US markets.
