Areas to Discuss
• Overview of pre-harvest stressors in pigs
• Practical importance of pre-harvest handling– Transport losses in market weight pigs– Carcass bruising and trim loss– Pork quality defects– Economic implications
• Review best handling practices to minimize stress

“Pig Handling 101”
• During rearing, pigs experience relatively few changes to their environment and may have limited exposure to humans
• Changes in the pig’s environment and / or the presence of an unfamiliar human can cause fear
• Examples of pigs being frightened during loading include:– Moving to the corners of barn pens
– Trying to escape through small openings in gates
– Balking at moving objects, shadows, sunlight, changes in flooring, wind, etc.

“Pig Handling 101”
• Pigs have good memories and can be trained– Examples: show pigs and racing pigs at the fair
• The natural behaviors of pigs are to:– Follow one another during handling– Move from dark to well lit areas
• A thorough understanding of the natural behaviors ofpigs and the flight zone are needed for the optimalhandling and movement of pigs

Economic Impact of Transport Losses
• Ritter et al., 2009– Transport losses cost the U.S. swine industry ~$46 million in 2006
– This translates to approximately $0.44 per pig marketed

Lean Value Pricing
• Grid carcass weight and leannessadjustments may be applied:– Fixed premiums (known dollar amount)
– Relative premiums (percent adjustment)
• Carcasses are not typically USDA (thirdparty) graded– Packer employee measures
• Objective measures– Fat-O-Meater, ruler, ultra-sound, etc.

Fresh Sausage Manufacture
Steps in Making Fresh Sausage
• Initial Grinding– Coarse grind-3/4" -1"
plate• Lean/fat meats ground
separately
• Frozen and/or fresh
• Uniform particle size

Enhanced Pork Technology
USSBUNON00593
Enhanced Pork Technology
• Enhanced/unseasoned pork– Lower injection levels – 7-15%
– Additional water and phosphate improves juiciness,and resistance to cooking abuse
• Enhanced/seasoned pork– Higher injection levels with tumbling to guarantee
tenderness
– Seasoning applied to the surface of the product
– Convenience/Variety
