One grade step is worth $34.27/cwt here — about $213 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 800–900 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

31 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $445.63, low $349.69, median $404.73 across 31 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
