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	—	High	1,655	96.87	1,603	7thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,193	92.48	1,103	2thin
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	1,037	78.12	810	32

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.
