We are always honored when our customers are successful with cattle they purchase from Vorthmann Limousin. Recently at the 2012 Westfair, several local 4-Hers did extremely well with steers purchased in last year's sale. Out of 108 steers in the carcass contest, Derek Ravlin tied for second with a retail value per day on feed of $5.084. Emerald Nelson placed fifth. Emily Nelson placed eleventh. We congratulate all the juniors who purchased and exhibited cattle from Vorthmann Limousin.
