Abstract:

The chicken meat supply chain process in Indonesia usually starts from suppliers, namely large-scale chicken farmers who are then distributed to medium-scale chicken agents/toke, traditional slaughter chicken traders, then restaurants and housewives as end customers. In such a long supply chain, there may be contamination that can cause the halal status of slaughtered chicken products to be questioned. The problem studied is the potential risk that can cause contamination of halal slaughtered chicken products from suppliers to end customers. Therefore, this study aims to identify the risk of c

Abstract:

Immobility of pigs is a reason for emergency slaughter. The goal of this project was to determine the proportion of emergency slaughters due to immobility in pigs. In a selected pig slaughter facility, emergency slaughters were monitored in the period between 1997 and 2002 and the numbers of pigs slaughtered due to immobility reasons were monitored. The conclusion was that the proportion of sows slaughtered due to immobility reasons is high (31.3%) in comparison to other pigs (9.7%) and this difference was found to be statistically significant (P &lt; 0.01).&nbsp; The objective of the

The lower Aerobic plate counts at high slaughter volumes may have resulted from uniformity of cattle slaughtered, specialization of labor, measures taken to prevent contamination, and effective decontamination of carcasses in high-volume slaughter establishments.

AbstractThis study examined strain, sex and slaughter weight effect on performance, meat quality and yield of broiler chicken. One hundred and fifty-day-old chicks (broilers) were distributed randomly in a 3 × 2 × 4 factorial experiment, with 50 birds per strain (Ross, Aboaca and Anak) and 25 birds per sex. After trial, 32 birds per strain and 16 per sex were slaughtered at 4 different body weights (1,000, 1,500, 2,000, and 2,500 g) to determine carcass yield and meat quality. The results revealed significant strain and sex effect (P < 0.05) on growth performance of the broiler chicken. Ros

Abstract:

Feed restriction prior to slaughter may reduce live and carcass weight gain (Murray and Jones, 1994) and meat quality (Warriss, 1982) but can reduce carcass contamination and the amount of waste to be disposed of at the slaughter house (Eikelenbloom et al., 1991). Most literature studies are however based on a single feed restriction while group housed pigs may be slaughtered over a period of time and can therefore be subjected to several periods of feed restriction.

Due to the social (ethical and cultural) reasons in recent years in Poland a ritual slaughter of animals for religious purposes has caused many emotions and controversies. As a consequence, in 2013-2014 a legal ban on the use of this form of killing animals was implemented. In the paper an attempt to assess the scale of ritual slaughter of animals was made. Moreover, the premises of pros and cons of this form of slaughters were indicated. In Poland, it is carried out on an industrial scale, and meat obtained in this way is mainly for export, since the domestic demand is relatively small due to

Throughout, the crossbred genotypes were younger at slaughter than their purebred contemporaries.

The quality of poultry meat is impacted by pre-slaughter factors. The eating quality of meat, including pH, color, thawing loss, cooking loss, and toughness, is negatively impacted by pre-slaughter stress such as loading, unloading and etc. These quality changes have a significant negative impact on profits because they decrease meat yield, shelf life, and consumer acceptability. Only animals that are physiologically healthy should be slaughtered to avoid any weight loss and other quality changes.
