Abstract

A total number of 80 male buffaloes were slaughtered in Cairo abattoir to study the carcass yield at different ages. The animals were divided into 3 groups of 15, 18 and 24 months old. The best meat gain (72,8%) was achieved from animals at 24 monhs old. The 15th months aged calves produced relatively higher percent ages of 1st grade retailer cuts i.e. psoas, intescostal and semitendinosus muscles. Percentage of bones to the carcass was 17.4, 17.5 and 17.01 for the different examined groups respectively. The study included also the different percentages of long bones, flat bones and vertebrae. The loss during chilling amounted to 1.5 - 3.0%.
