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	—	Low	1,130	102.57	1,159	2thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Low	1,143	96.90	1,108	12
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	950	84.99	807	2thin

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.

Class	Stage	Age	Avg wt	$/head	Head
Bred Cows	2nd Stage (4-6 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	—	$1,170	2thin
Cow-Calf Pairs	Open	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	—	$900	4thin
