A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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

Class	Grade	Dressing	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Bulls	—	Average	1,063	162.44	1,727	2thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	High	1,198	171.00	2,049	8thin
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Low	980	100.00	980	1thin

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.

Cow-Calf Pairs	Open	Middle Aged (5-8 yrs)	800	$1,950	1thin
Stock Cows	Open	Middle Aged (5-8 yrs)	1,090	$2,350	1thin
