Potential for small-scale farmers to produce niche market pork using alternative diets, breeds and rearing environments: Observations from North Carolina

RENEWABLE AGRICULTURE AND FOOD SYSTEMS, 19(3), 135–140.

By: C. Talbott*, T. See n, M. Ahmedna*, H. Fennell*, G. Gunthorp & P. Willis*

Contributors: C. Talbott*, T. See n, M. Ahmedna*, H. Fennell*, G. Gunthorp & P. Willis*

author keywords: pork quality; alternative hog systems; sustainable agriculture; niche markets
TL;DR: Pork quality was similar across rearing environments except for lower initial pH levels observed in the pasture system and higher drip-loss percentage recorded in both outdoor systems, and alternative diets to produce niche-market pork are unlikely to influence flavor without adequate levels of marbling.

Timing of magnesium supplementation administered through drinking water to improve fresh and stored pork quality

Journal of Animal Science, 82(5), 1454–1460.

By: B. Frederick n, E. Heugten n & M. See n

Contributors: B. Frederick n, E. Van Heugten n & M. See n

TL;DR: Although the response to Mg supplementation was variable, supplementation for 2 d before slaughter was considered most efficacious because of the following: decreased fluid loss from the SM, and lower lipid oxidation formation in the LM during retail storage; a darker, more desirable LM color after 25 d of vacuum-packaged storage; and cost reductions compared with longer durations.
