Denison feeder cattle sale

The Denison Feeder Cattle Auction, Denison, Iowa, reported receipts of 2,890 head May 8, compared to 2,789 head last year, according to the Iowa Department of Agriculture-USDA Market News, Des Moines, Iowa.

This was a special feeder cattle sale. A nice rain had a large crowd on the seats. The sale featured a string of source verified cattle.
