LIVE WIRE

Buyers are
at the board.

Hay sells at auction, and HayWire is the board its buyers watch: 750+ feedlot operators, growers, auction buyers and dealers get it every Tuesday at 6 AM Central, and close to half open it before the day's bidding. One sponsor stands on that board each week, between the week's prices and The Call.

§01 / WHERE YOU STAND

Your slot, at the
moment of decision.

Every Tuesday issue runs in the same order. Your card runs after the prices and the reader reports and directly ahead of The Call, when readers have absorbed the prices and are deciding what to buy. With the Founding Quarter it also runs on the homepage and the live prices page.
