I am a first generation rancher just starting out. How do I get set up with a feed lot? I am wanting to raise beef cattle and sell them to the feed yard but I don’t know how to get started.

Pay a visit to your banker. It's too complicated and would take a lot of space to explain here. Good luck!!
 
Neighbor got me set up with a Feedlot in Dundee Minnesota , the year we moved here. Yes the neighbor also had a dirt work company, did lot of work for me that first summer . When he was shipping calves I asked , dose the feeder need more. He bought mine now 7 years. He likes full semi loads of even sized calves.
 
How many do you have to sell? If it is just a handful the sale yard is most likely your only option. Feedlots for the most part will want semi loads. Google feedlots in your state and surrounding states. I have seen feedlots listed by states before. I also know that is some states there are cattle feeder associations.
