Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Bulls	—	Average	1,433	99.41	1,425	8thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,391	90.66	1,261	99

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	888	61.95	550	37

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.
