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	1,326	94.57	1,254	8thin
Cows	Boner 80-85%	Average	1,082	80.63	872	23
Cows	Lean 85-90%	Very Low	965	62.30	601	56

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.

Class	Stage	Age	Avg wt	$/head	Head
Bred Cows	3rd Stage (7-9 mo)	Middle Aged (5-8 yrs)	1,085	$900	1thin
Bred Heifers	1st Stage (1-3 mo)	(<2 yrs)	915	$1,075	1thin
Cow-Calf Pairs	Open	Young (2-4 yrs)	1,095	$1,025	1thin
