There are six auction markets held throughout the state. A veterinarian inspects all animals that pass through the market.
During the 2015 General Session, the Legislature appropriated for Fiscal Year 2016, $72,000 from all sources for Auction Market Veterinarians. This is a 20.4 percent increase from Fiscal Year 2015 revised estimated amounts from all sources. The total includes $0 from the General/Education Funds, a reduction of 100 percent from revised Fiscal Year 2015 estimates.
