Comparative Yield of Different Size Turkey Carcasses
Poultry Science, 1968 Abstract INTRODUCTION MILLER (1965) reported the breast and thigh accounted for 57% of the total carcass weight and 65% of the total edible meat. Further processors know that meat yield of turkey carcasses can be influenced by many factors. Age, finish, sex, strain and carcass size are considered factors that influence yield before they reach the ...

Placement Density Influences Broiler Carcass Grade and Meat Yields
Journal of Applied Poultry Research, 1995 Abstract Male and female broilers were housed during warm weather at varying placement densities to determine the influence of density on carcass grade and yield. Males were reared to 49 days of age at densities of 0.8, 0.9, or 1.0 ft. 2/bird; females were raised at densities of 0.65, 0.75, or 0.91 ft. 2/bird to 42 days. All birds (ten replicate pens/
