As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, slaughter cows sold 4.00-5.00 lower and slaughter bulls sold 2.00-4.00 lower. Large numbers of cattle are coming to market as area drought conditions continue to intensify and both water sources and forage supplies are being depleted. Several small dispersals were included in the supply. Supply was heavy and demand moderate for slaughter classes.

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	1,720	104.16	1,792	34
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Low	1,393	77.97	1,086	75

Cows	Lean 85-90%	High	984	50.16	493	205

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.
