  21. Future Complete With Muscle Trend to Heavier constructed Bigger boned & Heavier muscled hogs

  22. Average Market Hog 2000 NPPC lean growth modeling Project: 1550 head of hogs Weight 280 lbs Back fat 1.1” LEA 5.5 Muscle 2 USDA Grade #2

  23. Ideal Market Hog Weight 275 lbs Back fat .8” LEA 6.0 + Muscle 2+ USDA Grade #1

  24. Ideal Market Hog Packers response: - 270 lbs - White Hogs prefered - Hogs that can walk - Minimum fat depth of .6” - Swift/Hormel .8” export market higher - Loin eye 7” - Minimum 54% lean - Stress Free

  25. Ideal Market Hog Quality (Packer response 1) Water holding capacity 2) Color 3) Tenderness 4) IMF (intramuscular fat)

  26. Ideal Market Hog Quality (Packer response 1) Water holding capacity - Greatest economic loss to the industry - Dries excessively during cooking

  27. Ideal Market Hog Quality (Packer response 2) Color - Important to consumers and japenesse market - Cannot be measured on kill floor ~ fab floor - Id becomes a problem

  28. Quality Color Standards Unacceptable 1 4 2 3 Unacceptable 5

  29. Ideal Market Hog Quality (Packer response 3) Tenderness - Many packers enhance product up to 30% to insure tenderness and juiciness

  30. Ideal Market Hog Quality (Packer response 4) IMF (intramuscular fat) - Provides juiciness and flavor - Not as much of an issue with (enhanced pork) - Evaluated on a scale of 1-10

  31. Marbling Scores Unacceptable 1 2 4 3 Unacceptable 5

  32. RFN Ham Red, Firm, and Normal (RFN)

  33. PSE Pale, Soft, and Exudative (PSE)

  34. DFD HamDark, Firm, and Dry (DFD)

  35. Market Hog Evaluation • Two methods to quantify Lean to fat 1) USDA Grade - Oldest used only to classify markets by some reporters 2) Percent Lean

  36. Market Hog Evaluation USDA Yield Grade • Last rib back fat • Muscle score (1, 2, 3) (4 x last rib fat) – muscle score

  37. Market Hog Evaluation • Percent Lean 1) Weight - 2) Fat measurement 10th rib Best indicator of total fat – Why? 3) Loin eye measurement - 10th rib - best indicator of total muscle Base Hog is 250 lbs, .80 BF, 5.0 LEA
