One grade step is worth $55.34/cwt here — about $241 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 700–800 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

28 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $501.85, low $374.23, median $428.03 across 28 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
