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	—	Average	1,727	122.98	2,124	8thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,201	95.65	1,148	9thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,467	92.71	1,360	24
Cows	Lean 85-90%	High	1,207	75.03	905	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.

Class	Stage	Age	Avg wt	$/head	Head
