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	1,745	155.80	2,718	26
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,422	133.23	1,894	27
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,240	131.70	1,633	38
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Very Low	1,026	111.76	1,147	41

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 Stage (4-6 mo)	Aged (>8 yrs)	1,398	$2,000	3thin
