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	—	Average	1,687	146.48	2,470	4thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Low	1,029	124.00	1,275	7thin

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	1,020	111.98	1,142	2thin

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.
