One grade step is worth $22.91/cwt here — about $158 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.

28 sales

Bulls 0–100 lb: high $228.74, low $174.19, median $215.00 across 28 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
