Collin Demuth, York, NE (402) 366-8238 collindemuth@hotmail.com I t is with great enthusiasm that we look forward to traveling west again to help conduct your National Sale in January. Denver is, and has always been, the pulse of the cattle market. It’s where superior genetics and a national buyer pool come to trade. This year has experienced a leveling off of commodity prices driving strong demand for cattle at all stages in their life cycle. Today breeders can sell their mature herd bull and invest salvage dollars into young sires like never before. The national herd is down and this coupled with less expensive feed and input costs has made the cattle business one of the highlights in agriculture today. Demand for high quality genetics has not been higher and it’s never been a better time to be in the Highland cattle business. Highland breeders continue to improve the breed and their cutting edge genetics are on display and for sale in Denver. Join us this year for what we expect to be a great family outing and business event. Please don’t hesitate to contact AHCA or your sale committee to inquire about this year’s offering.

In the event an animal is claimed to be a non-breeder, the animal may be returned to the farm of the seller, if in good condition and complying with the health requirement of the seller’s state. The seller shall be entitled to 6 months trial following the return of the animal in which to prove that the animal is a breeder. If at the end of 6 months the seller is unable to prove the animal is a breeder, the seller shall, at the option of the buyer, replace the animal with another of equal value or refund the full purchase price.
