4 of 6 classes are not quoted. Those traded, but under 50 head — too few to average into a market price. The head count is still shown, so nothing is hidden; only the average is withheld. Across every state over the last year, cells under 50 head are 29% of the cells and 1.4% of the cattle. $/cwt, head and barn counts are USDA as filed USDA. $/cwt is USDA's weighted average of every reported lot. $/head is that price applied to the midpoint of the weight range Derived, blank on 300–400 and 900 lb + because both are open-ended and USDA publishes no average weight to use instead.
