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	—	Average	1,596	112.89	1,801	11
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,403	95.10	1,335	13
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Low	1,243	93.69	1,164	31
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	1,078	83.42	899	10

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 Heifers	1st Stage (1-3 mo)	(<2 yrs)	1,055	$1,200	1thin
