As filed

There was a large crowd on hand tonight at the SLMC for the replacement cow and bull special. As we meet fall calving season and producers in the area are feeling less drought pressure with some consistent rainfall and forage regrowth, the market was very active with many playing bidders in person and on the internet. High quality pairs and 3rd period cows and heifers were in very high demand, and heavy supply, with many full herd dispersals included in the offering this month.
