As filed

Compared to Monday two weeks ago, the bulk of breaking and boning slaughter cows sold 2.00-4.00 higher with a few high dressing 6.00 higher while lean slaughter cows sold near steady and slaughter bulls sold 1.00-2.00 higher on a light supply. A high percent of the offering went to slaughter. There was a light offering of replacement cattle. Supply was moderate and demand good 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.

Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Low	1,430	73.80	1,056	78

Replacement cattle Per head
