<p>A computer network is used to facilitate the transfer of livestock, stockfeed and/or other food products from a vendor to a purchaser. The vendor initiates a connection over the computer network between a computer associated with the vendor and a computer associated with a transfer facilitator; the transfer facilitator prompts the vendor for information pertaining to the consignment of livestock of food that the vendor proposes to sell; in response to prompts from the transfer facilitator, the vendor provides the transfer facilitator with information regarding the livestock or food which the vendor proposes to sell; and the transfer facilitator converts the information received from the vendor into a vendor declaration and posts the vendor declaration to a point on the computer network accessible by the vendor and/or one or more prospective purchasers.</p> |
