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	—	High	1,602	114.18	1,830	7thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,627	90.79	1,477	18
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Low	1,362	89.29	1,216	29
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	992	71.62	710	16

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.
