SHARE AND QUALITY OF MUSCLE TISSUE IN CARCASSES OF PIGS PRODUCED ON FAMILY FARM
In this study, 60 pig carcasses were included, divided in 2 groups according to breed (1st=SLxGL; 2nd=SL), and within groups according to sex (gilts F1=15 and F2=14; male castrates M1=17 and M2=14). Pigs were produced on family farm and fattened in same conditions. Primary processed and cooled car...

within groups according to sex (gilts F1=15 and F2=14; male castrates M1=17 and M2=14). Pigs were produced
on family farm and fattened in same conditions. Primary processed and cooled carcasses were cut according
to “Kulmbach” method (CAC/79). The main parts of the carcasses were dissected on tissues (muscle, fat and
