Book Description
Excerpt from Market Classes and Grades of Yearling Beef With the trend toward increased marketing and slaughter of younger and lighter-weight cattle there has developed a need for class and grade standards which can be applied to carcasses of year ling beef. The descriptions in Department of Agriculture Bulletin N o. 1246 1 are for mature beef only, and do not include yearling beef, some of which is sometimes called baby beef. Because of the influence that age and feed have on the character, consistency, texture, and color of the flesh, carcasses of the bovine species are divided into four groups: Veal, calf, yearling beef, and mature beef. From the standpoint of economy and practical trade ethics these divisions are necessary. The differences between carcasses of year ling beef and carcasses of mature beef are as great as the differences between veal carcasses and calf carcasses.
