Cargill Carcass Data
Background
Carcass traits are key to profitability for producers sending animals to slaughter. Traits like weight, fat cover, muscle, and marbling directly affect how animals are priced. High-quality carcasses meet market specs, yield more saleable meat, and qualify for premiums. Tracking these traits also guides better genetics and management, improving future performance and returns.
For farms who send animals to Cargill meat processing plants, you may now import Carcass Data.
