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	—	High	1,688	96.29	1,625	11
Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,284	81.09	1,041	43

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	1,105	68.32	755	29

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age
