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	—	High	1,638	112.42	1,841	15
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,518	110.41	1,676	3thin

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	1,028	77.72	799	17

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.

Class	Stage	Age	Avg wt	$/head	Head
Bred Cows	2nd Stage (4-6 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	963	$1,017	5
Bred Cows	3rd Stage (7-9 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	860	$1,000	1thin
