In my area most of the auctions have been postponed, a couple of the consignment sales are cancelled and a couple are going to be online only. I did get to one this spring last month, another one I wanted to go to is postponed until May. Similar situation here, not many farm dispersal auctions compared to when I was young due to most of the smaller farms having ceased operating. Another thing I have noticed is that often when someone does quit/ retire and doesn’t sell the farm they may try to sell their better equipment off piece by piece and then what is left isn’t enough for a decent auction. I can think of several people I know who did it this way. The best thing about an auction is if you have a fair amount of decent stuff it usually brings what it is worth if sold on-farm and you can get decent money for the small stuff and get a little for even the old worn out stuff. When I was younger and auctions were more common they were quite the social event for the older farmers who often wouldn’t go anyplace else that wasn’t farm related.
