Abstract
Implications
The Australian beef and lamb industries have shifted from utilizing a carcass classification system to consumer-focused carcass grading, through the Meat Standards Australia grading system.
Grading systems must be dynamic to meet changing consumer preferences.
Objective technologies can increase the accuracy and precision of yield and eating quality measurement inputs into grading models.
Combining carcass yield estimates with consumer value can underpin transparent value-based trading systems.
Value-based trading can generate significant industry benefits by delivering the desired product to the consumer, improving processing efficiency and optimization, and providing more precise carcass feedback and market signals to livestock suppliers.
