Improving pork: belly quality and shelf life

In this Topigs Norsvin podcast, Matt Schulte, Meat Scientist, and Grant Walling, Senior Service Geneticist and Head of the Meat Group, elaborate on two aspects of pork quality that can be influenced by genetics: Belly quality and shelf life. Based on recent research, it is possible to breed for thicker bellies without negative effects on fat quality. With breeding, it is possible to contribute through selection on pH, drip loss and fat quality. Listen to this podcast and learn how Topigs Norsvin contributes.

Heavier carcasses: challenges for processors

On average, carcasses become 0.5 kg or 1.1 lbs heavier every year. This leads to challenges for processors during scalding and chilling as capacity is not matched to the extra weight. It can lead to lower meat quality, such as extra drip loss, muscle denaturation and paler meat color. In this Topigs Norsvin podcast, Matt Schulte, Meat Scientist, and Grant Walling, Senior Service Geneticist and Head of Meat Group, discuss these and other challenges and their solutions. They also talk about future quality challenges and the effects on quality and eating experience if carcass weight continues to rise.
