Sale Committee Starts Planning for the 2014 Spring Sale

The Michigan Holstein Association sale committee recently held its second meeting in as many weeks via conference call. Last year we got a late start on planning for the

spring sale and things got rather rushed in the weeks leading up to the sale. This year we are excited to get the ball rolling earlier in hopes to build an even better sale.

When the bills were all paid following the 2013 sale we made some money for the association but the feeling was, we could have done better. Our goal last year was to get started on building the spring sale up to a nationally renowned sale by the time that the national Holstein convention is held in Michigan in 2018.

The sale committee felt that last year’s sale had the right kind of cattle with the right kind of pedigrees but fell a little short on getting the consignors the best prices for their consignments. Many thanks need to go out to the MHA members who donated time and resources to the sale. Our fitter, Craig Martin, did a great job getting the cattle ready to go through the sale ring and the MSU Dairy Club did a great job of doing the hard work involved with putting on a sale in the week prior to the sale.

The 2014 Spring Foundation Sale will be set up about same as last year’s sale and hopefully we will improve on a few things and get more buyers to the sale and to make our consignors happy to consign to the sale in the future; 2018 will be here before we know it.

So, keep in mind that March is not that far off and we will be looking for some great consignments for the 2014 MHA Spring Foundation Sale. Please feel free to contact Ike Hunt 989-307-0987 or Moss McCauley 616-446-2670 with any questions regarding the sale. Save the date, that’s March 21, 2014, at the MSU Pavilion. See you there!

The 2013 Michigan Dairy Expo got off to an exciting

last week when the Supreme Champion Dairy Heifer, exhibited by Lucas Moser of Dansville, Mich., topped the Michigan Livestock Expo Sale-abration with a record-setting bid of $25,000. The buyer of the dairy lot of the livestock sale was a strong contingency of dairy industry supporters who pooled their money to purchase the winning lot.

In total, $43,000 was bid on four dairy lots: Supreme Champion Dairy Cow exhibited by Parker Hardy of Tipton, Mich.; the Supreme Champion Dairy Heifer, Supreme Dairy Showman Kailey Sweers of Dansville, Mich. and the Grand Champion Cheese exhibited by the Old Europe Cheese of Benton Harbor. The three dairy youth exhibitors each receive $1,000. The remaining proceeds from the sale of the dairy lots goes into the statewide dairy youth fund of the Michigan Youth Livestock Scholarship Fund and is used to support scholarships and educational grants for youth in the dairy industry.

The Buyers of the Supreme Champion Dairy Heifer were:

Michigan Milk Producers Association The Kroger Co. of Michigan CoBank Caledonia Farmers Elevator NorthStar Cooperative Dairy Farmers of America Zeeland Farm Services Calder Dairy Foster, Swift, Collins & Smith, P.C. Vita Plus Roberts Dairy Service Class Construction Hardys Holsteins United Dairy Industry of Michigan

The buyer of the Supreme Champion Dairy Cow exhibited by Parker Hardy was Meijer, Inc. for $8,000.

Supreme Champion Dairy Heifer Tops Livestock Sale, Sets Record

The buyer of the Champion Dairy Showman exhibited by Kailey Sweers was Kalmbach Feeds for $5,000.

The buyer of the Grand Champion Cheese was United Dairy Industry of Michigan for $5,000.

“The Michigan dairy industry is a vibrant and growing industry and we need to encourage these kids interested in our industry to stay involved, to stay excited about our industry and to stay here in Michigan,” says Ken Nobis, president of Michigan Milk Producers Association.

“We are proud to support the Michigan dairy industry, and especially all the youth involved in dairy program activities. We rely on Michigan dairy farmers to supply our stores with fresh, high quality milk every day. Encouraging young people to stay involved in dairy farming helps us ensure that we can continue to provide locally produced dairy products to our customers,” says Dale Hollandsworth, community manager for the Kroger Co. of Michigan.

The Michigan Dairy Expo is a week-long education event featuring the State Dairy Days Youth Show, educational contests and State breed association dairy shows. This year over 300 dairy youth from around the state will participate in one or more of the events.

The Michigan Livestock Expo Sale is held each year following the Michigan Livestock Expo. The Michigan Livestock Expo is a statewide multi-species livestock event featuring over 700 youth exhibitors of beef, sheep, swine and goats that is designed to enhance the livestock industry, educate youth and showcase Michigan’s agriculture industry.
