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	1,398	113.38	1,585	4thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,333	103.49	1,380	2thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,184	95.81	1,135	7thin

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	1st Stage (1-3 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	—	$1,013	2thin
Cow-Calf Pairs	Open	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	—	$1,225	4thin
