Thanks to a grant from the NYS Department of Agriculture and Markets (“Stocker cattle: Using underutilized grasslands to improve economic viability of the Southern Tier while providing viable careers for beginning farmers”), we have hired 4 Livestock Market Reporters that collect price and animal description data at five New York auction barns.
The report is intended to be a general representation of the cattle offered. Exceptionally poor cattle are not quoted, nor are the few that bring an exceptionally high price.
