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	1,043	95.96	1,001	2thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,430	86.00	1,230	2thin

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	1,128	66.17	747	3thin

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)	Middle Aged (5-8 yrs)	915	$790	1thin
