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	—	Low	1,604	116.86	1,875	37
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,463	108.59	1,588	102
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Low	1,205	98.33	1,185	182
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	1,033	87.30	902	262

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.

Bred Cows	2nd/3rd Stage (4-9 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	1,202	$1,623	25
Bred Cows	2nd/3rd Stage (4-9 mo)	Aged (>8 yrs)	1,089	$1,453	50
