One grade step is worth $24.95/cwt here — about $94 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 200–300 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

28 sales

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $454.51, low $314.22, median $408.82 across 28 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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

Cows	Boner 80-85%	Low	1,194	115.72	1,381	117

Replacement cattle Per head
