CARCASS CONFORMATION AS A CRITERION OF YIELD AND VALUE OF BEEF CARCASSES

Canadian Journal of Animal Science, 1974
Dissection results from 50 beef type and 50 dairy type carcasses ranging from 280 to 355 kg in carcass weight, with type defined by a panel of retail buyers, identified a small but statistically significant (P < 0.01) superiority of beef carcasses in percent yield of boneless trimmed lean cuts.

The representation of yield of dressed carcass

Animal Science, 1966
1. Because dressing percentage increases as body weight increases, an adjustment for body weight is necessary when the dressing percentages of animals of different body weights are being compared. Instead of comparing animals on this basis, it is suggested that the power function y = axb, relating carcass weight and body weight, when computed in the ...

Effect of myostatin F94L on carcass yield in cattle

Animal Genetics, 2007
SummaryIn this study, a highly significant quantitative trait locus (QTL) for meat percentage, eye muscle area (EMA) and silverside percentage was found on cattle chromosome 2 at 0–15 cM, a region containing the positional candidate gene growth differentiation factor 8 (GDF8), which has the common alias myostatin (MSTN).

PREDICTION OF LEAN YIELD OF BEEF CARCASSES

Canadian Journal of Animal Science, 1970
Detailed carcass cut-out data were obtained over two years on 149 Shorthorn bulls slaughtered at approximately 14 months of age. Carcass yield was measured on a closely trimmed basis, bone-in and boneless, and finally on a boneless-defatted basis. Simple carcass measurements were used singly and in multiple regression to predict lean meat content ...

PREDICTION OF YIELD AND VALUE OF HOG CARCASSES

Canadian Journal of Animal Science, 1964
Relationships between a number of split and internal carcass measurements and per cent yield of the carcass and its component cuts when trimmed in accordance with commercial standards were examined using a sample of 482 hog carcasses. Carcass length and weight were found to have low predictive value, accounting respectively for approximately 9 and 4 ...

Yield measurement is valuable for pricing beef carcasses

Animal Production Science, 2020
Context The most common way of pricing beef carcasses is through a price grid. Most processors make greater profit from higher-quality carcasses, which are those with higher meat yield and eating quality. Aims The aim of this study was

BACKFAT THICKNESS AND CARCASS WEIGHT AS PREDICTORS OF THE YIELD OF HAMS AND LOINS OF PIG CARCASSES

Canadian Journal of Animal Science, 1968
Detailed cut-out data were obtained from 930 hog carcasses comprising a two-way sampling structure of nine fat categories and 11 weight categories. Fat categories covered a range of 38 to 127 mm in total backfat (sum of maximum shoulder and maximum loin fat) and weight categories covered the range of 57 to 82 kg in warm carcass weight.

Study on the Carcass Yield Grade of Hanwoo

Journal of Animal Science and Technology, 2005
Total number of 237 Hanwoos were purchased from the nationwide fanns based on the different market weights and sex. After slaughtering, they were evaluated to estimate the productivity of carcass components by the sex and market weight, and to predict the beef carcass yield grade equation. The main results in this study were summarized as follows; With

Predicting the yield and composition of mature cow carcasses.

Journal of Animal Science, 1997
Cow carcasses (n = 60) were selected based on conformation and external fat to develop more current and useful prediction equations for estimating yield and composition. Adjusted preliminary yield grade was highly correlated to percentage of the carcass as fat (.91), percentage fat in the total lean (.89), and percentage fat in the lean trimmings (.88)
