Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Class	Grade	Dressing	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Bulls	—	High	1,659	128.61	2,134	5thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Low	1,390	102.59	1,426	9thin

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	996	94.06	937	41

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.
