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	—	Average	1,510	90.00	1,359	1thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,312	84.17	1,104	3thin
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	962	73.55	708	7thin

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.

Class	Stage	Age	Avg wt	$/head	Head
Bred Cows	3rd Stage (7-9 mo)	Young (2-4 yrs)	948	$855	2thin
Bred Cows	1st Stage (1-3 mo)	Young (2-4 yrs)	910	$800	1thin
