livestock market

Cattle trading venue

A livestock market is a place where farm animals—cattle, sheep, pigs, horses—are bought and sold, typically through auction.

Farmers and ranchers bring animals to sell; buyers bid on lots.

The term also applies to the broader trade in such animals: The livestock market has been volatile since the drought began.
