Live Ag Auctions is a new agricultural marketplace designed to sell load lots of cattle and host life auctions. CJ, Page, exchanges director and head of buyer relations,says this platform creates new opportunities for cattle producers to connect with buyers and enhance their cattle sales.

"Just going to be kind of like your normal video market auction that you're everybody's probably somewhat familiar with. Probably going to start off having a monthly auction. As we grow. We'll probably go bi weekly. We'll also have some some larger, hopefully have some larger sales in the summer and different locations. So that'll be be pretty neat. Just start monthly and go from there.”

As Paige explains, in addition to the live auction, the platform features an exchange section which functions as a private treaty listing page, where users can consign cattle.

“Say,it's Monday and they want to ship them Friday. They can call us, get us all the details, and we can get them up on the page at an asking price, and then buyers can bid on them from there, and we can negotiate the deal and just a little more slow pace sometimes, or we can, we can get cattle traded quickly, but some people like it a little better, even than a live auction, just because it's a little slower pace and different different setup.”

The website is Live-Ag.com.
