One grade step is worth $67.61/cwt here — about $368 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 300–400 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

33 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $432.90, low $340.72, median $396.69 across 33 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
