Electronic auctions

• The electronic auction is a new marketing method developed by the feeder calf marketing committee and has been in place since July 2023. Through a partnership with The Electronic Auction Market, it allows producers to market feeder calves and semi-finished calves to fed cattle producers and brokers nationwide.

  The electronic auction sales calendar is available on the PBQ’s electronic auction platform at this link.

  Electronic auctions are open only to producers who are able to sell at least 10 calves of the same sex with a maximum of 100 lbs. in weight difference.

  To list calves for sale, producers must:

  • Read and sign the conditions of sale and purchase
  • Complete and sign the registration form
  • Take photos and/or videos of the feeder calves to be marketed
  • Send all of the above to veaudembouche@upa.qc.ca
