dc.description.abstract | This study compares performance, body and carcass composition among castrated (CM), immunocastrated (IM) and entire males (EM), and females (FE) at 30, 70, 100 and 120 kg of body weight (total of n = 92; 20–24/sex type). Overall, IM had similar growth and feed intake to CM and greater than EM and FE. At each slaughter stage, IM had a lower killing-out percentage than CM and FE, in line with their heavier liver and kidneys. Flare fat proportion and backfat thickness on the ham and at the last rib level were similar for IM, EM and FE, and these were lower than CM. In EM and FE, backfat between the 3rd and 4th last ribs was lower and carcass lean content was higher than in CM, whereas IM were intermediate and not different to the other sexes. Females showed the largest ham proportion, this cut being leaner and less fatty than in CM. Belly proportion was higher in CM than in EM. | ca |
