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	1,678	110.18	1,849	9thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Very Low	1,295	84.56	1,095	7thin

Steers	Select and Choice	Average	1,165	145.00	1,689	1thin

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.
