Effect of different fattening methods on slaughter and carcass characteristics of Tuj male lambs

Abstract: Abstract. This study was conducted to determine effect of different fattening methods on slaughter and carcass characteristics of Tuj male lambs. Tuj lambs (n=18) were used in three groups with six lambs in each group. Group 1 was only grazed on the pasture and group 2 was supplemented 200 g concentrate with the pasture. Group 3 was supplemented 400 g concentrate with the pasture. Lambs were grazed on the pasture for 8 h/day. Concentrate with 18.5% CP and 2650 kcal/kg ME was fed to lambs in addition to pasture… Show more

“…Hot and cold carcass dressing percentage determined in the extensive group were higher than those (40.00% and 38.00%) stated by Ulusan et al [21] for Tuj lambs grazed in pasture. Hot carcass dressing percentage determined in the semiintensive group was lower than the value (49.09%) reported by Macit et al [29] , for Tuj lambs under semiintensive conditions, similar to the values under semiintensive conditions (46.78%) stated by Kırmızıbayrak et al [23] for Tuj lambs and (47.56% and 47.64%) stated by Sarı et al [22] . The highest cold carcass dressing percentage was in intensive group and it is in agreement with the results in intensive group observed by Carrasco et al [26] , Aksoy and Ulutaş [30] , Akçapınar et al [31] , and Joy et al [32] .…”

“…Slaughter weight stated in the extensive group in this study was lower than slaughter weights (32.00, 34.70 and 33.70 kg) stated by Ulusan et al [21] for Morkaraman, Tuj, and their cross-breed yearlings in pasture group and slaughter weight reported by Sarı et al [22] for Tuj lambs in pasture group. Slaughter weight specified for semi-intensive group in this study was similar to slaughter weights (41.36 and 42.48 kg) by Kırmızıbayrak et al [23] for Tuj and Morkaraman lambs, and also similar to slaughter weights (39.30 and 40.97 kg) stated by Öztürk et al [24] in Morkaraman and Kıvırcık x Morkaraman (F 1 ) lambs under semi-intensive conditions.…”

“…In this study, the slaughter weight in extensive fattening group was in line with the findings of the study conducted by Ulusan et al (25) reporting a slaughter weight of 32.00, 34.70 and 33.70 kg for Morkaraman, Tuj and their cross-breds fed by pasture. Moreover, the slaughter weight in semiintensive fattening group was similar to the weight reported by Kirmizibayrak et al (15) (20) for Tuj lambs in groups of pasture, pasture+200 g concentrated feed and pasture+400 g concentrated feed (44.10, 44.86 and 46.00 kg, respectively). Furthermore these values were higher than those determined by Yarali and Karaca (26) for Karya lambs fed on pasture, pasture and fodder, and intensive fattening group (23.35, 26.84 and 27.53 kg, respectively).…”

“…The reasons for breeders to prefer indigenous races are their fine adaptability to regional conditions, their resistance to disease, and well utilization of low-quality pastures. Among indigenous races, the Tuj is generally bred in Kars; and the Hemşin is bred especially in the province of Artvin and its surroundings (2,18,19).…”
