The steers averaged 1319 lbs with one steer topping the scale at 1655 lbs. They sold for an average of $2.20\/lb with tremendous support from the community. The day wrapped up with a complimentary BBQ for all sponsors and buyers.<\/p>\n

The animals will be processed at Valley Meat Packers and Benito Meats. Argenis Rodas with the Meat Science Department at the University of Manitoba will grade them on June 28th where the Champion and Reserve Champion Carcass will be selected based on the Canadian Beef Grading Agency standards.

This wraps up the 4-H year; however you can visit with many of the members during the Northwest Roundup & Exhibition as the club assists with the Down on the Farm display during the fair. The members would like to thank the community for supporting their achievement, show and sale, all the many buyers and sponsors, the leaders of the club and most especially their parents. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
