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	1,598	104.50	1,669	2thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,093	91.03	995	9thin
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	1,100	70.18	772	2thin
Steers	Choice	Average	1,580	90.00	1,422	1thin

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)	985	$1,025	1thin
