The Butler County Stockman’s Association will hold their annual livestock sale on Saturday March 10^th 2018 at 1:00 p.m.  The sale will be held at the Eva J. Hawes Ag. Exposition Center at the Charles Black City Park in the Morgantown.  A committee of Butler County farmers has been working for a year to make the sale a reality.  There will be over 50 breeding animals offered for sale on March 10.  The sale catalog that is available at the Butler County Extension Office gives specific information about the animals.  Catalogs are also available online.  A link is available at the Butler County Stockman’s Association Facebook Page.  Animals will be sold at auction, by the head.  Mr. A.J. Woosley will be selling the cattle for the stockman’s association.  Cattle will be available to preview at 11:00 a.m. and all animals must be removed from the sale facility by 4:00 p.m..  Buyers should bring two forms of identification to register with the sale. 

               The cattle in the sale are of the highest quality.  Heifers in the sale have met the Kentucky Department of Agriculture’s Kentucky Herdbuilder program of heifer quality and development.  They have been reproductive tract evaluated, and they have been treated with a proven health regimen.  There are both open and bred heifers in the sale.  Bulls are reproductively sound.  They will have passed a Breeding Soundness Evaluation within 30 days of the sale.  Buying animals of this quality will increase the productivity of most any farmer’s cow herd.  The Butler County Stockman’s Association invites you to come out to participate in their annual cattle sale.  The committee wants to stress that there is no reason to go outside of Butler County to find productive animals that will work well in your cow herd when we have them for sale here on March 10^th at 1:00 p.m.  Concessions will be available for purchase at the exposition center.
