[QUOTE="dun, post: 161389, member: 34"] You might try to find other producers in your area that will work together and form a mak=rketing group. Co-mingle and sort the calves, background them for 45-60 days and sell directly to the feedlots. You could check with one of the universitys that does agricultutal stuff and see if they have established or would be interested in assisting with setting up a group or multiple groups in the state. That said, those of ours we don;t market through the marketing group either go private treaty or through the sale barn. We have a local salebarn 15 miles, another about 40 miles and another about 65 miles. The 65 mile place reutinely beats either of the other two barns. The closest one is a great place to buy but a lousey place to sell. Most stuff runs 10-15 less then the next place and they;re well under what the furthest barn brings. dun [/QUOTE]
