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	1,757	100.66	1,769	8thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,453	88.73	1,289	4thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,254	86.20	1,081	20
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Very Low	1,064	75.43	802	30

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	3rd Stage (7-9 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	1,285	$1,300	4thin
