Custom meat processing software: Custom Processing
We offer custom processing for Beef, Pork and Lamb. Processing instructions are to be submitted online from the website by the day the animals arrive at our facility. If you have questions, please feel free to email or call—we’re happy to assist! We offer processing of custom beef by the quarter, half and whole. Please note: mixed quarters (also known as divided sides) will have a standard cut. You will select the size of roasts you would like, the number of steaks you would like per package and the size of your ground beef packages.
MEAT PACKING APP MANAGES LIVESTOCK SLAUGHTER
The slaughter of livestock involves three distinct stages: preslaughter handling, stunning, and slaughtering. In the United States the humane treatment of animals during each of these stages is required by the Humane Slaughter Act.
PRE SLAUGHTER MANAGEMENT PROCESSES
Preslaughter handling
Preslaughter handling is a major concern to the livestock industry, especially the pork industry. Stress applied to livestock before slaughter can lead to undesirable effects on the meat produced from these animals, including both PSE and DFD (see Postmortem quality problems). Preslaughter stress can be reduced by preventing the mixing of different groups of animals, by keeping livestock cool with adequate ventilation, and by avoiding overcrowding. Before slaughter, animals should be allowed access to water but held off feed for 12 to 24 hours to assure complete bleeding and ease of evisceration (the removal of internal organs).
MANAGE THE ENTIRE FABRICATION PROCESS WITH EASE AND ACCURACY
Use inexpensive tablet terminals so each team member can see where they are in the processing stage and rapidly record data for their tasks regardless of position in processing chain (weigh box, knock box, head removal, evisceration, inspection, further processing, retain rail, scale, packaging, shipping and export).
MEAT PACKING TRACEABILITY
Instant mock recalls both up and down the supply chain tracks to livestock supplier, property, and establishment. Recall using any key such as livestock supplier lot/batch, livestock supplier name, delivery date, invoice #, inventory # or animal number, RFID, pallet #, customer reference, order # and more..
MEAT PACKING INDUSTRY INTEGRATION
The ownership of all parts of the supply chain is called vertical integration. It gives integrators – the companies who have integrated all the different parts under one umbrella – control over price and quality; and the economies of scale they have achieved have helped to drive down the consumer prices of meat. Vertical integration has also allowed the meat industry to become highly consolidated, controlled by just a few companies: As of 2019, the four largest companies in each sector controlled 85 percent of beef cattle slaughter, 67 percent of pork packing, and 54 percent of broiler chicken processing.12 The slaughter and packing plants these few companies run operate on a tremendous scale: in 2022, half of beef cattle slaughtered took place in just 12 U.S. slaughter facilities (of the almost 776). These top 12 plants each process more than one million animals per year on average, which is approximately 2,800 cattle/day, 365 days/year.
