The superintendent of the Missouri State Fair Sale of Champions says it was a record sale this year.
Wayne Yokley tells Brownfield although fewer animals were in the sale this year, donations were up.
“[The] donation was over $180,000 again with fewer animals in the sale, that would’ve been an increase over 2019, so the 2020 sale I think was an extreme success,” he said.
Yokley said the champion steer set a new record bringing more than $40,000 and the reserve champion barrow set a new sale record bringing over $35,000.
