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	1,800	133.30	2,399	33
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,457	109.33	1,593	102

Cows	Lean 85-90%	High	946	86.18	815	176

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age
