Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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

Bulls	—	Low	1,692	167.92	2,841	3thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,247	166.00	2,070	3thin

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	977	145.69	1,424	6thin

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.
