It was mentioned a year or so ago that 4-H and FFA kids need to learn how to pay commissions on their animals at the fair, just like at the sale barns when you sell cattle or the central hog markets. You receive your check that day or in the mail about three days later to go to the feed mill or to the banks to pay your debt off. Here it is 35 days later and the 4-H and FFA kids have not received a thing yet. Not only do they pay the commission to the fair board or to whoever it may go to, but they also pay a penalty at the feed mills or the banks for late payments.
I think something needs to be done about this for the kids’ sake. Thank you.
