One grade step is worth $9.47/cwt here — about $13 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 400–500 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

13 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $447.46, low $384.03, median $433.09 across 13 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
