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	1,546	118.30	1,829	18
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,129	108.14	1,221	50

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	883	88.75	784	36

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)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	1,128	$1,213	28
Bred Cows	3rd Stage (7-9 mo)	Young (2-4 yrs)	906	$1,048	8
