A very solid event held on an extremely hot day. Cattle sold to 51 buyers from three states. The semen topped at $425 per unit on five units of CA Future Direction 5431 selling to Yolo Land & Cattle Co., Woodland, CA. American AgCredit sponsored the tri-tip barbeque lunch enjoyed by all. Many good buys were made. The morning seminars by Cargill, API and the American Angus Association representatives were well received. Another successful event for this established sale.
