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	1,661	123.20	2,046	14
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,065	109.29	1,164	26

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	931	89.48	833	34

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	2nd/3rd Stage (4-9 mo)	Middle Aged (5-8 yrs)	1,100	$1,370	20
Bred Cows	1st/2nd Stage (1-6 mo)	Middle Aged (5-8 yrs)	820	$928	8
