Nevada Livestock Marketing, LLC

We were all complaining how dry it was….. not anymore!! We got ol’ time winter like when folks bought groceries in bulk for the whole winter. I remember going with my parents with a Chevy stock truck and twelve butcher cows headed to the sale barn at Nampa, Idaho. We would shovel the truck out, lay down a tarp and fill the entire truck with non perishables. Come winter, if you had to have it you rode a snowmobile to get it. We haven’t had that kind of winter in years. In most areas where our customers run cattle, we had heavy rains in the fall that started a nice green up. The ground didn’t freeze up and the grass has an insulation of snow, so hopefully we get early spring feed and the springs, creeks and reservoirs are replenished. Cow numbers are down nationwide so prices could be $$$$ higher than these last 6 or 7 years. We are now having 2 feeder sales a month to accommodate the increasing number of cattle coming to Nevada Livestock Marketing to be marketed. January 21st, February 4th and February 18th. All should be good sales as prices keep creeping up each month.
