The Rural Voice, 1999-09, Page 5Cover
Rethinking the cattle business can help farmers
gain extra dollars for their product. An example
is the presorted calf sales held at the Keady
Livestock Market for the last couple of falls. Calf
producers are
encouraged to
properly
vaccinate,
dehorn and
neuter their
calves. For the
sale they're
presorted to
create
attractive,
similar
packages for
buyers.
