Video Sale INFORMATION
Video sales are a marketing mechanism that have grown in popularity due to the opportunities they present to producers who deal in large numbers of stocker and feeder cattle. Cattle are generally marketed in trailer-load lots weighing approximately 48,500 pounds; however, we can also sell “partial loads” if there are not enough cattle to make a full trailer-load. Before the sale, a representative from MACS goes to the farm to record video of the cattle while also documenting important information about the cattle including breed, frame, muscling, and fleshing as well as health and nutrition programs. The following catalog provides this information from our consignors and contractors to assist with marketing the consigned cattle. If you have any questions regarding the stated information, please contact a MACS representative listed throughout this catalog.
