Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

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

Bulls	—	Average	1,502	110.28	1,656	15
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	Average	1,393	88.07	1,227	21

Cows	Lean 85-90%	Average	775	59.83	464	12

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age
