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	1,460	107.98	1,577	5thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,100	87.49	962	34

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	945	70.22	664	18

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.
