RFD Radio affiliate WSMI in Litchfield reports that the Greenville livestock market closed its doors last Friday. Reports say the market was losing money on transportation costs and the fat cattle market.

According to a statement on the Greenville Livestock Market website, all future markets are canceled. "Farmers Livestock Marketing Association has entered into voluntary liquidation. The cooperative believes all checks will be honored and paid in full. If you have further questions, contact 515-323-2579," the statement said.

Our thanks to RFD Radio affiliates WSMI and WGEL for help with this story.
