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	—	High	1,694	118.93	2,014	15
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,437	103.69	1,490	16
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,200	99.08	1,189	95
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	978	83.73	819	35

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)	1,085	$1,300	2thin
