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	1,818	104.64	1,902	8thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,476	81.94	1,209	49
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Low	1,207	80.70	974	20
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	997	65.57	653	11

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.
