[QUOTE="dun, post: 20004, member: 34"] That's what our marketing association does. This year we moved out 300 and some odd head of both heifers and steers from 16 producers. We have requirements that must be met as to genetics, vaccinations, conditioned, frame, muscle and age. Then we ship them to a backgrounder for a period of time, varies by market conditions, then sell them as potloads. The bakcgounder this year cahrged 48.7 cents per lb of gain. We shipped them just afte the first of the year and got high market. In all actuality we probably didn't get that much more for them then if we had shipped them without being backgrounded, but we will end up with carcass data and premiums if they earn any. dun [/QUOTE]
