Characteristics and Cutability of Farmed Rusa Deer (Cervus timorensis) Carcasses for Marketing of Venison

Abstract: Rusa deer are the only viable commercial tropical deer species for farming in the tropics because of their hardiness, adaptability and prolific characteristics. Twelve entire rusa stags were slaughtered according to halal procedure and used for carcass evaluation and cutability studies. Three carcass categories; large (46 to 55 kg), medium (36 to 45 kg) and small (25 to 35 kg) were developed for rusa stags. This study indicated that entire Moluccan rusa deer stags with mean live weight ranges from 50 to 80 kg … Show more

“…All samples of venison used were derived from muscles of primal cuts (Dahlan 2008). Selected muscle samples were biceps femoris m. (BF), semitendinosus m. (ST) and semimembranosus m. (SM) from round cuts, longissimus dorsi m. (LD) from saddle cuts, psoas major m. (PM) from sirloin cuts, gluteus medius m. (GM) from rump cuts, LD from ribs cuts, infraspinatus m. (IS) from shoulder cuts and BF from hind shank cuts.…”

“…Deer carcass characteristics determine deer meat quantity and are associated with the market value of the deer [7]. These characteristics are largely dependent on the animal’s diet, which affects not only carcass composition but also the physical, chemical, technological and organoleptic properties of the meat [8].…”

“…Besides, deer farming is potentially the most profitable and probably the fastest-growing livestock industry in New Zealand and Australia (ABARE and MAF 2006). Production of high-value gourmet products from venison or deer meat in tropical countries has got importance, notably for its leanness and also to replace game venison from illegal hunting of endangered tropical wild deer species (Dahlan 2009). Nutrition plays a significant role in multiplying endangered germplasm and enhancing animal production.…”
