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	—	Average	1,712	94.75	1,622	3thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Low	1,385	79.44	1,100	48

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	970	64.08	622	22

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.
