One grade step is worth $21.89/cwt here — about $81 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 0–100 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

This barn's trailing prices 0–100 lb

8 sales

Bulls 0–100 lb: high $204.98, low $188.51, median $200.98 across 8 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
