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.

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.

Carcass weight as an index of carcass components with particular reference to fat
The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1958In 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.

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 ...

Lamb carcass characteristics I. The influence of carcass weight, fatness, and sex on the weight of 'trim' and traditional retail cuts [PDF]
Australian Journal of Experimental Agriculture, 1995 Carcass data were obtained for 258 lambs [hot carcass weight 16.0-28.7 kg, fat depth at the GR site (12th rib) 5-23 mm]. The sample included ewes, wethers, and cryptorchids (86 of each). Of these, 130 carcasses (42 ewes, 45 wethers, 43 cryptorchids) were prepared as boneless, heavily trimmed, 'trim lamb' cuts (i.e.

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

Econometric analysis of the determinants of broiler carcass weight
Animal Production Research Advances, 2006This study was done to evaluate rationale behind the choice of feeding method in broiler management; identifying the variables that influence carcass weights of broilers as well as comparing the mean carcass weights of broilers raised under feed restriction and ad libitum in FUTO Farm, Owerri, Nigeria.

The Effect of Carcass Quality on the Grid versus Dressed Weight Carcass Revenue Differential [PDF]
, 2013 Our study investigates the fed cattle grid pricing system and its premium and discount incentive mechanism over time. We hypothesize that the influence of an animal's carcass quality attributes on a price grid's incentive mechanism can be revealed by evaluating the effect of carcass quality on an individual animal's grid determined carcass premium or ...

Alternative methods of pig carcass description were compared as predictors of the weight (kg) of commercial lean yield and fat yield in 209 bacon weight carcasses. The predictors used included hot carcass weight and carcass sex in association with: the backfat measurements used in the Danish grading scheme (minimum loin, 3rd-4th lumbar and 3rd-4th last

WEIGHTS OF BROILER PARTS AS RELATED TO CARCASS WEIGHTS AND TYPE OF CUT
Journal of Food Science, 1973960 broiler carcasses weighing from less than 450 to 2000g were individually tagged and cut using eight commercial cutting techniques. Percentages of the different pieces to whole carcass weight ranged from 17.2% for split breast with back to 5.4% for drumstick portions.
