A valuable lesson?

grassfarmer did you attend the Beef Industry Conference in Red Deer last year. It is being held again this year and the Auction Markets Association are one of th organizations that are involved in it. There is an open forum during the event where anyone can ask questions of each organization. Some of the postings here regarding auction markets would make good questions for the executive of that organization at the conference.

The Beef Industry Conference is at the Capri Centre in Red Deer February 17-19

Emrald1, I'm afraid I don't get to all day events very often - problem of being a one man band. I find it frustrating not to be able to go but at the same time I feel better in touch with what is happening on the land - so many of these organisations and events are run by a bunch of "away day" men that don't have their finger on the pulse of what is happening on the land.

The Alberta Government News releases today indicates that there is to be a public consultation process in January regarding the possibilit of amending the regulations governing Auction Markets etc.
These public meetings are to be held across the province and will take place in the evening to accommodate the folks who are busy in the daytime.
I am planning on attending the one in Airdrie.
