Animal
auctions at the fair play a huge role in the economy. The Iowa County Fair generated
$194,555 during the "rest” few days of the fair. The important thing is
that this impact is not realized at the given weekend of the fair; the animals
take time to raise, feed and tend. So if the fair auction did not exist, these
animals might not be raised and sold. The impact is unique to each year and
wholly realize in that year on a county level. The total industry sale impact
is $194,555; the total number of jobs created by the livestock auction is 4.2 and
the total labor income is $42,215.
