Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Bulls	—	High	1,490	122.01	1,818	8thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Low	1,180	104.24	1,230	14
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	1,285	86.59	1,113	2thin

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.
