As filed

JRS was the place to be this evening for the August replacement cattle special sale. Many groups of high quality bred heifers, many AI bred, and young bred cows hit prices not seen much before in SW MO, and the young pairs with bigger calves were highly sought after. The top groups of heifers bred for fall calving sold for $5,570/hd and the top young bred cows brought $5,150/hd.
