Source status: The dead URL brookfordfarm.com/s/Bulk-Beef-Order-Info-3.pdf has been replaced by a live nav page, https://brookfordfarm.com/bulk-meat, listing 4 current SKUs. This farm publishes TWO genuinely different, explicitly-labeled bulk rates depending on package type: the half-cow ('Standard Cut Package') is priced on hanging weight at $9.25/lb (two individual sides currently listed, hung at 350lbs and 337lbs respectively); the 1/4 and 1/8 cow 'Sampler' boxes are priced on take-home/packaged weight at ~$17.50-17.55/lb (roughly double the hanging-weight rate, as expected once yield loss is accounted for). Both rates are farm-published verbatim, not derived by me. No individual a-la-carte retail cuts checked in this pass (site also sells produce/dairy/eggs; meat-only retail was out of scope here).

Verified against the published source.
