Planning for Calf Quest 2004 began in January and took us as far as Indiana to screen calves for this year's sale.

It all came together and culminated Saturday, December 4 at the Farmers Livestock Auction, Boonville, MO with forty-five lots consigned to this year's sale with almost fifty buyers signing up for buyer's numbers.
