How can the fault be fixed if the producer is not getting feedback Who bears the cost of the fault • Processor – Product that he can not sell • Producer – Diminished demand and return • Consumer – Poor eating experience • Industry – Reduced demand for our Meat
C. Ovis (Sheep Measles) We can not export meat with this. Do you want this on your table? Will the consumer buy Lamb again? The producer must be told so they can fix it. It can be controlled and eradicated.
Dirty Stock – Poor presentationDifficult to process – E-coli, Salmonella, Trim Damage
Heavy and Fat Lambs, Why Not?? • Producer – Extra feed cost as longer on feed • Producer – More work for less stock turnover • Producer – Risk of eruption of teeth • Processor – More Fat and Bone waste • Processor – Lack of demand for heavy carcass • Retail – Item is too costly to the consumer
