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	—	Low	1,568	94.40	1,480	2thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,178	77.31	911	10
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	1,074	63.19	679	5thin

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.
