General NoteCollege, Laguna: UPLB, 1985. pp. 53-60. -(UPLB-PCARRD Proj. No. 961; Study 1.5c)
Summary, Etc.This study assessed the effects of sex and castration on the carcass characteristics of goats. Results showed that carcass weights (mean=8.79 kg) and chilled carcass weights (8.46 kg) were higher for females. Dressing percentage calculated on the basis of hot and chilled carcass weight was similar among treatments. The percentage of shrinkage due to chilling of the dressed carcasses of females, intact and castrated males was 3.80, 2.90 and 3.44%, respectively. Sex and castration did not significantly influence percentage weights of the different organs including the percent weight of hide, blood and fat. However, sex and castration significantly influenced percent contribution of leg and neck. Major cuts which showed no differences among treatments were loin (13.59-14.52%), rib (19.85-20.20%) and shoulder (28.42-29.60%)
