[QUOTE="elkwc, post: 1525536, member: 22295"] Several breeders in this area used to sell direct to the lots or to a Stocker buyer. Selling directly to the lots has diminished due to the fact that most of the lots are now owned by the big corps and their policies don't allow it. My supervisor used to sell direct and his cattle fed well. The manager always paid a premium for them. But after a corp bought it that stopped. A few smaller lots buy some feeders direct. One buys Herefords and Hereford crosses for the CHB program. Understand it works well for him. And some buy them for the grass fed beef market. I have been spoiled by corn fed beef. And I haven't adjusted to the grass fed yet. [/QUOTE]
