Influence of sex, slaughter weight and carcass weight on “non-carcass” and carcass quality in segureña lambs

Small Ruminant Research, 2005
Abstract The effects of sex, slaughter weight and carcass weight on carcass characteristics and meat quality traits were evaluated using 100 Segurena lambs. The management of all lambs was similar prior to slaughter at 19–25 kg. Slaughtered animals with a hot carcass weight below 20 kg were assigned to class B, and those greater than 22 kg to class C.

Estimation of Body-weight, Carcass Weight and Carcass Composition of Live Lambs with a Radio Frequency Bridge

Nature, 1965
THE use of a capacitance meter to measure the amount1, wet and dry matter content2 and water content3 of pasture herbage has been described previously. As similar data are of interest in farm animals4,5, an apparatus was designed by two of us (D.S.M.P. and G. de la M. N.) to measure the capacitance and resistance of live lambs.

Carcass weight as an index of carcass components with particular reference to fat

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1958
In many animal production experiments, carcass weight is used as the sole criterion for the effectiveness of the treatments and of the nutritional status of the animals involved. In these experiments some knowledge of the carcass components would be desirable in order to assess any effects on the various tissues.

Effect of air speed, temperature and carcass weight on the cooling rates and weight losses of goat carcasses

International Journal of Refrigeration, 1987
Definition de la duree de refroidissement du centre du gigot et de l'epaule de carcasses de chevre a des vitesse de l'air de 0,5, 1 et 3 m/s. Cette analyse est effectuee pour permettre de prevoir le temps de refroidissement pour toute temperature de l'air evitant la congelation superficielle.

Growth rate and its effect on empty body weight, carcass weight and dissected carcass composition of sheep

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1976
SummaryThe effect of three different growth rates from 15 to 40 kg live weight on the body composition of lambs was studied. The treatments were: High (H) ad-libitum feed intake, Low (L) restricted feed intake and High–Maintenance–High (HMH) ad-libitum feed intake from 15 to 25 kg followed by a 50-day period during which live weight was maintained ...

Hexoestrol implantation of steers fattened at pasture II. Effects on empty weight, carcass weight and carcass quality

Animal Science, 1964
The first paper of this series (Alder, Tayler and Rudman, 1964) described experiments carried out over 4 years on the effects of hexoestrol on live-weight gain and herbage intake in grazing steers. The 52 steers used weighed between 750 and 1,100 lb. initially and included four pairs of twins. The experiments lasted between 55 and 124 days and involved

Comparison of Carcass Weight and Carcass Characteristics in Some Cattle Breeds

Research and Practice in Veterinary and Animal Science
Beef is an indispensable source of protein for humans. The production is increased in recent years with the effect of increasing population. Besides of beef cattle breeds, male calves of dairy breeding and combined productive animals are also been fattened. The aim of the study investigate the carcass yield and characteristics of the some beef cattles.
