Steers 500–600 lb: high $477.64, low $364.45, median $429.02 across 30 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.
