One grade step is worth $120.36/cwt here — about $299 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

6 sales

Bulls 0–100 lb: high $221.00, low $178.02, median $214.49 across 6 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
