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	1,705	100.83	1,720	7thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,153	71.57	825	43
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	843	51.93	438	13

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.

Cow-Calf Pairs	Open	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	1,025	$876	2thin
