One grade step is worth $25.63/cwt here — about $46 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.

31 sales

Bulls 0–100 lb: high $220.56, low $194.42, median $209.40 across 31 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
