The relationship of pork carcass weight and leanness parameters in the Ontario commercial pork industry. [PDF]
Transl Anim Sci, 2020 This study aimed to examine the correlation of carcass weight, fat depth, muscle depth, and predicted lean yield in commercial pigs. Data were collected on 850,819 pork carcasses from the same pork processing facility between October 2017 and September ...

Associations between carcass weight uniformity and production measures on farm and at slaughter in commercial broiler flocks. [PDF]
Poult Sci, 2019 In poultry flocks, flock weight uniformity is often defined as the percent individuals within 10% of the mean body weight (BW) and the variability of this uniformity can be expressed as the CV of BW.

Dressing percentage and the differential between live weight and carcass weight in cattle are influenced by both genetic and non-genetic factors1. [PDF]
J Anim Sci, 2019 The objective of the present study was to quantify the genetic and non-genetic contributors to variability in both carcass dressing percentage and dressing difference (i.e., the difference between carcass weight and live weight immediately prior to ...

Effects of Carcass Weight and Back-fat Thickness on Carcass Properties of Korean Native Pigs. [PDF]
Korean J Food Sci Anim Resour, 2017 Our study analyzed the carcass properties of 170 Korean native pigs in relation to carcass weight and back-fat thickness to provide general data for the production and distribution of high quality pig meat. The 70-74 kg group showed highest yield (73.41%)

Genetic parameters for carcass weight, conformation and fat in five beef cattle breeds
Animal, 2015 Profitability of beef production can be increased by genetically improving carcass traits. To construct breeding value evaluations for carcass traits, breed-specific genetic parameters were estimated for carcass weight, carcass conformation and carcass ...
