Club Calf Prospects Mixed in 4-H Beef Market
The Gazette reports mixed feelings as 4-H beef projects face a down market. Eldon Hans and Keith Westercamp urge prudent purchases like heifers for future stock, while crossbreds and exotics sell well at regional sales. Prices vary from 20 to 40 per hundredweight for calves with top sales reaching 680 for a steer and 525 in recent auctions.
