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	1,650	121.12	1,998	21
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,407	101.70	1,431	50
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Very Low	1,232	98.99	1,220	94
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Very Low	1,003	88.85	891	192

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.

Bred Cows	2nd Stage (4-6 mo)	Middle Aged (5-8 yrs)	1,133	$1,454	6
Bred Heifers	1st/2nd Stage (1-6 mo)	Young (2-4 yrs)	1,068	$1,444	5
