English

Subject field(s)
  • Regulations and Standards (Food)
  • Slaughterhouses
DEF

The general outline of the muscle formation of a livestock carcass.

OBS

Although muscle depth is now included in the grading formula, its influence is minor. Because of this, a very large difference in muscling would be required to affect carcass index, therefore, the drawbacks of selecting for increased muscling are greater than the potential benefits.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Réglementation et normalisation (Alimentation)
  • Abattoirs
