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	1,547	104.67	1,619	3thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,493	86.01	1,284	2thin

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	1,057	75.73	800	9thin

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.
