M There were 731unfortunate livestock producers and several auction markets left unpaid for livestock following the default and bankruptcy of livestock broker Eastern Livestock Company. At those markets that were left holding bad checks – 100% of livestock producers were paid in full.
M Your best interests will be met when your cattle are represented by the marketing professionals at your local livestock auction market.
