Prediction of carcase characteristics using neck traits from hair-sheep ewes

The objective of this study was to develop predictive equations for carcase composition using neck tissue composition as predictors in multiparous Pelibuey ewes (n=50, body weight = 39 ± 7 kg and body condition score = 2.56 ± 0.98 points) were used to develop predictive equations for carcase tissue...
