This study was carried out to evaluate yield of carcass cuts, loin eye area, centesimal composition and fatty acids profile of carcass of meat from lambs raised under organic and conventional systems. Forty-eight Ile de France lambs, with average initial weight of 15 kg were distributed in two production models, organic and conventional, and slaughtered when final body weight reached 32 kg. The production models did not affect weight or yields of carcass cuts; however, the longissimus dorsi muscle of […]

The objectives of this paper were to generate data on physical composition and muscle:bone, muscle:fat and edible portion:bone ratios of the loin of ewes slaughtered at different physiological stages in addition to the possible correlations among the variables analyzed in this study. Twenty-one Santa Inês ewes were distributed to the following physiological stages: EL = ewes which remained in lactation for 60 days with their respective lambs and slaughtered at one day after weaning of the lambs; EWL = ewes […]
