One grade step is worth $34.69/cwt here — about $209 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 400–500 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

15 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $454.43, low $374.99, median $416.78 across 15 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
