Abstract
SUMMARYSelected sample joints from the right sides of twelve 18-month-old Friesian steers were used to compare their accuracy in predicting carcass composition. Results indicated that whilst the shin joint proved the more accurate predictor of carcass muscle and bone contents, the loin (ribs 11 to 13) or foreloin (ribs 9 to 10) proved more useful in predicting total carcass composition, provided carcass weight was included as an additional variate.
