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	—	High	1,687	114.21	1,926	6thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,370	95.00	1,302	15

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	992	75.50	749	17

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.
