  • Eating Less Meat
    Eating Less Meat South Durham Green Neighbors This is the fourth in a series on taking larger steps toward sustainability. You know yourself best. What would it take to get yourself to eat less meat? Are Plant-based Diets Really That Great? Yes! PlantPure Nation, a documentary on plant-based diets, makes claims about the environmental and health benefits of those diets. A check on two databases of articles, Proquest Central and Pub Med, backs up these claims. (See references below.) Note: Plant-based diets vary from complete veganism to a diet of primarily plants with small quantities of fish +/- chicken and no red meat. Environmentally, British researchers have found that the plant-based diets results in lower greenhouse gas emissions. The age-and-sex-adjusted mean GHG emissions in kilograms of carbon dioxide equivalents per day (kgCO2e/day) were: 7.19 for high meat-eaters, 3.91 for fish-eaters, 5.63 for medium meat-eaters, 3.81 for vegetarians and 4.67 for low meat-eaters, 2.89 for vegans. In other words, eating lots of meat = bad, eating less or no meat = good. Medical research articles can be confusing, but by checking medical review articles you can avoid trying to make sense of lots of individual research studies. In these reviews, researchers look at all the studies they can find on a topic, check the quality of the research, and crunch the numbers to find out what the evidence really says. Below are some sources, but here’s the bottom line: Plant-based diets significantly reduce the risk of: Diabetes Obesity Hypertension Total cholesterol LDL Cholesterol Colorectal cancer Stroke When it comes to plant-based diets, what’s not to like? Creating Your Plan If you still want to eat meat, there’s an easy way to make sure you are at least not overindulging in it: Think of your plate as a circle divided roughly into quarters.

  • Broiler Chickens
    The Life of: Broiler Chickens Chickens reared for meat are called broilers or broiler chickens. They originate from the jungle fowl of the Indian Subcontinent. The broiler industry has grown due to consumer demand for affordable poultry meat. Breeding for production traits and improved nutrition have been used to increase the weight of the breast muscle. Commercial broiler chickens are bred to be very fast growing in order to gain weight quickly. In their natural environment, chickens spend much of their time foraging for food. This means that they are highly motivated to perform species specific behaviours that are typical for chickens (natural behaviours), such as foraging, pecking, scratching and feather maintenance behaviours like preening and dust-bathing. Trees are used for perching at night to avoid predators. The life of chickens destined for meat production consists of two distinct phases. They are born in a hatchery and moved to a grow-out farm at 1 day-old. They remain here until they are heavy enough to be slaughtered. This document gives an overview of a typical broiler chicken’s life. The Hatchery The parent birds (breeder birds - see section at the end) used to produce meat chickens have their eggs removed and placed in an incubator. In the incubator, the eggs are kept under optimum atmosphere conditions and highly regulated temperatures. At 21 days, the chicks are ready to hatch, using their egg tooth to break out of their shell (in a natural situation, the mother would help with this). Chicks are precocial, meaning that immediately after hatching they are relatively mature and can walk around.

  • Toxicity of Horse Meat
    Toxicity of Horse Meat U.S. horse meat is unfit for human consumption because of the uncontrolled administration of hundreds of dangerous drugs and other substances to horses before slaughter. Facts: • Virtually all horses slaughtered for human food start their lives as American pets, sport horses (competitions, rodeos and races), or former wild horses who are privately owned. • Hundreds of chemicals are applied to or ingested by slaughtered horses on a constant basis throughout their lives . These drugs are often labeled “Not for use in animals used for food/that will be eaten by humans.” • Over fifty known drugs are expressly prohibited by current federal regulations for use in food animals (for example, Phenylbutazone, or “Bute,” a pain reliever known to cause potentially fatal human diseases). Any use of those drugs should block their use as food, yet almost every horse who would be slaughtered for meat has been exposed to many of these prohibited drugs. • Horses are not raised for food and therefore regularly administered these chemicals -- unlike other animals that we eat, who are maintained within a regulated industry. • There are many drugs and substances regularly used on horses that have never been tested on humans. The potential danger of eating them is completely unknown. • Race horses are not only given the above mentioned drugs routinely, but many are also given illegal drugs as well, such as “chemicals that bulk up pigs and cattle before slaughter, cobra venom, Viagra, blood doping agents, stimulants and cancer drugs.” (New York Times, March 25, 2012) • Due to the multitude of substances that horses are exposed to, all horse meat could cause illness or adverse reactions.

Some are surprised at the quantity of meat and amount of freezer space they need. Others may be surprised that they did not get the entire live weight of the animal in meat cuts. The amount of meat actually available from a beef animal is a frequent source of misunderstanding between consumers, processors and cattle producers. This document provides information to assist in the understanding of how much meat to expect from a beef carcass. The information provided here should be helpful to consumers who purchase a live animal for freezer beef and to cattle producers involved in direct and retail meat marketing. 2 University of Tennessee Institute of Agriculture How Much Meat to Expect from a Beef Carcass Dressing Percentage One of the terms used in the cattle and meat cutting industry that often leads to misunderstanding is dressing percentage. The dressing percentage is the portion of the live animal weight that results in the hot carcass.

  • The New U.S. Meat Industry
    Barkema/Drabenstott.qxd 6/21/01 1:37 PM Page 33 The New U.S. Meat Industry By Alan Barkema, Mark Drabenstott, and Nancy Novack new meat industry is rapidly emerging in the United States, as food retailers, meat processors, and farms and ranches coalesce Ainto fewer and larger businesses. The industry’s rapid consolida- tion in recent years has triggered alarms that the industry’s new giants in retailing and processing could drive up food prices for consumers and drive down livestock prices for producers. How should public policy respond to the industry’s consolidation? And how can all participants in the industry—producers, processors, retailers, and consumers—benefit from its new structure? This article studies the striking changes in the meat industry in three steps. First it describes how the industry is changing. Then it examines the forces driving the industry’s consolidation. Finally, it con- siders how consumers and industry participants are affected. While cur- rent evidence is scant that market power has hurt either consumers or producers, the industry’s rapid consolidation nevertheless warrants vigi- lance. At the same time, public policy might also play a role in ensuring that all participants in the market benefit from its new structure. All three authors are members of the bank’s Center for the Study of Rural America. Alan Barkema is vice president and economist, Mark Drabenstott is vice president and director, and Nancy Novack is a research associate. Kate Sheaff, a research associate in the Center, helped prepare the article. The article is on the bank’s web site at www.kc.frb.org.

  • Buffalo (Bison) Preparation Instructions
    Buffalo (Bison) Preparation Instructions Bison is very lean red meat. The flavor is unique; however, it more resembles beef than any other red meat. Bison can be used as a substitute in any recipe calling for red meat. However, since bison is a very lean meat, we must make mention that the proper cooking techniques must be followed in order not to overcook the meat. The general rule with bison is to cook LOW and SLOW. If you do not overcook the meat you will LOVE IT! Preparing Steaks and Burgers We suggest cooking to medium rare or medium at the most. Bison will cook faster than beef steaks and burger because it does not contain as much fat. Rub your favorite cut of steak with a combination of garlic salt, cooking oil, pepper and lemon juice. Do not use a fork to turn steaks, this punctures the meat, allowing the juices to escape. Note: well-done bison steaks and burger are not recommended. Due to the leanness of the meat, bison has a tendency to become dry when overcooked. Preparing Roasts The most acceptable cooking methods for preparing the perfect bison roast are low temperature and high moisture. We suggest cooking in a slow oven in a covered roaster (275 ˚ F) or crock-pot. Use whatever liquid you desire such as water, beef broth, tomato juice, wine, etc. We usually add onions, mushrooms and garlic cloves. Cook until the roast is tender. You can plan on the roast being done in about the same amount of time as with a comparable size beef roast.

  • The Butcher Stole My Meat
    The butcher kept your meat? by Dr. Christopher R. Raines, Assistant Professor Department of Dairy & Animal Science The Pennsylvania State University No, the butcher probably did not keep your meat. Ever since the first butcher processed a meat animal, the customer has wondered what happened to some of their meat. How could it be that a 1,200 pound steer left you with only 475 pounds of beef? Or that a 250 pound hog generated only 125 pounds of pork? What might seem like a reasonable answer - that the butcher kept your meat - is very unlikely. Take into consideration what happens during the conversion of a market animal into cut and packaged meat, and chances are the math will make more sense. This brief guide is intended to serve as a general base for meat product return and may not fully account for slight variations that different animals and butcher orders may incur. Step 1: Converting an animal into a carcass Dressing percentage (DP) relates the weight of the carcass to the weight of the live animal and is calculated as: (Carcass Weight ÷ Live Weight) × 100. This can be affected by many things, such as gut fill, fatness, mud on the hide, or shorn versus unshorn. Very fat animals have higher dressing percentages than light very lean animals. ~70% ~60% ~50% The average dressing The average dressing The average dressing percentage for hogs is percentage for cattle is percentage for sheep is about 70-72%. about 60-62%. about 50%. Example: Example: Example: Live weight = 245 lbs. Live weight = 1312 lbs.

  • Take a Look at the Bison Industry It’S Called the Bison Advantage Bison Today Represents One of the True Bright Spots in Other- Wise Uncertain Agricultural Economy
    Take a Look at the Bison Industry It’s Called the Bison Advantage Bison today represents one of the true bright spots in other- wise uncertain agricultural economy. Prices paid to produc- ers for market-ready animals have been at strong, profitable prices for the past eight years. As more people discover the great taste and nutritional benefits of bison meat. Bison today can be found on the menu of white ta- blecloth restaurants, in adult casual establishments, in an increasing number of retail outlets, and in farmers’ markets. With strong market prices expected to con- tinue, bison ranching represents on of the real growth opportunities for those producers entering agriculture, and for those considering a transition from conventional commodity production. Getting started in farming and ranching is never cheap, but bison represents one of the lower cost start-up enterprises in agriculture. Proper fencing and facilities are required, but you won’t need expensive machinery and handling equipment. Forget about barns…bison love the outdoors in all types of weather. In fact, bison do just fine in conditions ranging from raging blizzards to blistering heat. And, you won’t suffer sleepless nights during calving season because buffalo calve naturally without human assistance. In short, bison are a perfect match for producers who still rely on off-farm income to support their efforts to get established; and for those producers who would prefer to focus on building their business rather than pulling calves or hauling feed. One major factor inhibits continued growth in the consumer marketplace: SUPPLY. New Bison Producers Needed! Market prices for mature bison have remained at historic highs for the past eight years as processors compete to keep foodservice and retail markets supplied.
