Letters inviting consignors to the upcoming 2014 fall sales are part of the Sale and Health Test Letters Page on the JMS Blog. These letters include advertising and cataloging deadlines, as well as sale and contact information. As time approaches, the health letters will also be featured here, for your reference.
Also featured on the blog is the Sale Calendar Page, outlining genomic sample submission deadlines, cataloging deadlines, and sale dates.
The Jersey Marketing Service Fall Calendar is already starting to fill. Between hay, straw and other cropping, and hopefully some picnics and fairs with your families, be sure to take inventory of your Jersey herd! Sales will be around the United States again this fall, so keep checking the calendar to see if you can consign and / or buy replacement cattle at any of the JMS sales.
**SALES HAVE BEEN ADDED!**CATALOG DEADLINES are approaching quickly, so be sure to contact JMS or your AJCA/NAJ Area Representative to have your consignments included! The most urgent sales to submit consignments for are the Ohio Fall Production Sale, Prairieland Fall Sale, Top of the World, All American and Pot O’Gold sales.We are looking for quality genomic – production – type cattle for these sales!
The Top of the World Sale and Dairyland Protein Sale catalogs are online! Go to the JMS Homepage for the links!
Do keep in mind that ALL Sales, including Top of the World, Pot O’Gold and All American, consignments need to be turned in by summer’s end because of the details that accompany the cataloging and show entries that come with some of the events. Pot O’Gold consignments must be genomic tested, and samples need to reach the lab by the August 1 deadline to be included.AJCA will pay for 3 samples, as long as one of those is entered in the sale.
Each regional or state sale will be looking to wrap up their consignment list within a few weeks also, so be sure to contact your AJCA / NAJ Area Representative to have your cattle included in the sale closest to you!
Jersey Bid monthly consignment sales will continue as always, the third week of each month.
