Integrated technologies to enhance meat quality - An Australasian perspective.

Ensuring meat quality attributes meet the requirements of the diverse range of markets is a critical component for the continued success of the New Zealand and Australian meat industries. Developing cost-effective and flexible technologies to help meet this requirement is a central objective of a current Meat and Wool New Zealand and Meat and Livestock Australia funded programme. This initiative was developed three years ago; it is a collaborative programme that involves meat scientists, electrical engineers and commercial meat processors.
