The research was carried out on 19 male fallow deer from two different herds (10 from herd 1 and 9 from herd 2) and slaughtered at 3 different classes of live weight (31-40, 41-50 and 51-60 kg), which are equivalent to age estimated about 18-26, 27-34 and 35-42 months, respectively. Overall results highlighted the importance of the herd an the live weight class in influencing meat, fat and detectable bone percentage, as well as the incidence of the most representative muscles on cut weight and chilled right side weight; additionally, a significant interaction between the two above factors was detected for some indicators.

Abstract
The research was carried out on 19 male fallow deer from two different herds (10 from herd 1 and 9 from herd 2) and slaughtered at 3 different classes of live weight (31-40, 41-50 and 51-60 kg), which are equivalent to age estimated about 18-26, 27-34 and 35-42 months, respectively. Overall results highlighted the importance of the herd an the live weight class in influencing meat, fat and detectable bone percentage, as well as the incidence of the most representative muscles on cut weight and chilled right side weight; additionally, a significant interaction between the two above factors was detected for some indicators.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
