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	1,701	186.44	3,171	21
Cows	Premium White 65-75%	Average	1,813	172.49	3,127	5thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Low	1,652	162.48	2,685	31
Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,433	153.20	2,196	170
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	1,209	138.17	1,670	117

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
Springer Heifers	3rd Stage (7-9 mo)	—	1,186	$2,842	27

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
