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	1,658	105.30	1,746	51
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,441	85.00	1,225	85
Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,199	81.66	979	170
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	1,065	70.09	746	217

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/3rd Stage (4-9 mo)	Young/Middle Aged (2-8 yrs)	1,078	$1,146	26
