Thank you again to the forage producers and area business that helped make this year's Smith County Hay Show Auction at the East Texas State Fair a success. We raised $28,600 for the fair's Junior Livestock Show premium fund, the East Texas Cattle-Ettes scholarship fund, and scholarship and conservation activities sponsored by the Smith County Soil and Water Conservation District.
The Grand Champion bale was exhibited by Hayden Moore of Tyler and was purchased by Agriland Farm Credit Services for $3,000. The Reserve Champion bale was exhibited by Greg Walker of Bullard and was purchased by Walker and Associates Surveying for $1,800.
We had 54 producers participate in this year's show, which is an increase from last year!
A complete list of buyers and exhibitors making the 'Top 25' can be found in this file: 2009_Hay_Show_Sale_Results.pdf
