[QUOTE="Gators Rule, post: 1571076, member: 15587"] the number of steers in our county (Hardee) has hovered around 23 to 30 for the past 13 years. Pigs however is another story, as we had about 70 in my first year here (2006), and this past year it had grown to about 140ish. Prices have always been one of the highest in the state for both steers and hogs, though while steer price averages have grown to somewhere around $4+, pig prices have declined to average somewhere around $5.50 - 6.00, with the bottom pigs being around $4-4.50 or so. I buy pigs at two different county fairs (Hardee and Polk), and the prices are astronomically different, with Polk averaging much less. The difference is Hardee is primarily a rural type county. I love seeing the caliber of 4-H and FFA kids while they are raising and showing their projects. It gives me hope that all is not lost in America..!! [/QUOTE]
