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	1,382	92.41	1,277	8thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,392	82.06	1,142	5thin

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	908	72.08	655	12

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.
