The abilities of 12th rib and rump fat thickness measurements to predict yield of saleable beef were compared in 40 Hereford steer carcasses weighing 173-235 kg. Saleable beef yield and fat trim were significantly related (P< 0.05) to all 4 fat thickness measurements studied, rump P8, rump sacral crest, 12th rib (all cold) and 12th rib (hot). Rump measurements generally, had slightly lower standard errors of estimate than the 12th rib measurements in predicting the weights and percentages of saleable beef yield and fat trim. Rump P8 predicted saleable beef yield weight, saleable beef yield percentage, fat trim weight and fat trim percentage with means (� s.e.) of 72.55 (� 6.69) kg, 70.52 (� 0.72)%, 7.23 (� 0.86) kg and 6.99 (� 0.68)%, respectively. Multiple regression analysis showed that the addition of hot carcass weight or cold carcass weight as the second regressor resulted in predictions of similar accuracy. Quadratic analyses indicated that weight or percentage of cuts, manufacturing trim, saleable beef yield and fat trim were linearly related to 12th rib (cold) fat thickness and to P8 fat thickness.

ABSTRACTThe Hennessy and Chong Fat Depth Indicator and the Ulster Probe automatic recording instruments developed for measuring fat thickness were tested against the optical probe for use in pig carcass classification and grading.Fat thickness measurements were taken using each probe 60 mm from the dorsal mid-line over the m. longissimus at the positions of the 3rd/4th lumbar vertebrae, 3rd/4th last ribs and last rib on a total of 110 hot carcasses covering the range of market weights in Great Britain. The standard deviation of carcass lean proportion at equal carcass weight was 35·4 g/kg.The instruments differed little in the precision of carcass lean proportion prediction: residual standard deviation (g/kg) for the multiple regression with carcass weight and the best individual fat measurement for each probe were: last rib optical probe, 22·1; last rib Ulster Probe, 22·7; and 3rd/4th last rib Fat Depth Indicator, 21/6. Residual standard deviation (g/kg) for carcass lean proportion prediction from carcass weight and all three fat measurements in multiple regression were 21·3 optical probe, 21·3 Ulster Probe and 201 Fat Depth Indicator.Similar mean fat measurements were obtained from the optical probe and Fat Depth Indicator, and for these instruments, but to a lesser extent for the Ulster Probe, the regression relationships with each other and with fat thickness measurements taken on the cut surface of the cold carcass were also similar.The differences recorded in precision are unlikely to be sufficiently important to influence the choice of one probe rather than another.

Simple Regression

Predictions of carcass composition based on anal fold and 12th rib fat thickness measurements were compared in 12 Hereford heifers and 12 Hereford steers. For carcass proportions, simple regression equations indicated that heifers had less muscle (2-3%), more fat (2.5-4%), and more bone (0.9%, 12th rib only). Empty liveweight did not improve the accuracy of prediction of any carcass component when added to anal fold fat thickness. Chilled carcass weight and 12th rib fat thickness slightly improved the accuracy of prediction of muscle and fat proportions compared with prediction using each measurement alone. Multiple regression indicated that the heifers had 2.5-3% less muscle and 34% more fat. For predictions of the weights of carcass components at a given fat thickness measurement, simple regression indicated that heifers had less muscle than steers (by about 6 kg), but for bone and fat the intercepts did not differ significantly between sexes. In multiple regression, empty liveweight contributed strongly to the predictions of weights of all 3 carcass components. In all regressions in which the weight of each of the 3 carcass components was regressed on a weight and a fat thickness measurement together, except for muscle and fat regressed on chilled carcass weight and 12th rib fat thickness, the fat thickness measurement failed to contribute significantly to prediction. Although chilled carcass weight and 12th rib fat thickness together contributed (P<0.01) to the prediction of muscle weight and fat weight, chilled carcass weight was the stronger contributor. Regression indicated that heifers had about 3 kg less muscle and 3.5 kg more fat than steers. Multiple regression analysis showed that heifers and steers had about the same weight of bone.

Seaweed-Kappaphycus-Euchema Cottonii and Denticulum species was first cultivated at Sabah side of Sebatik in 2009. By November 2014, sixty one Sabahan seaweed farmers cultivated 122 ha or 3,050 long lines. Thirty Sabahan seaweed farmers in Kampung Pendekar (3.2 m.t dried) and 31 in Burst Point (12.5 m.t dried) produced 16 metric tonnes of dried seaweed contributed 31% to Tawau’s total production (51 m.t). The remaining 69% were from farmers in Cowie Bay that separates Sebatik from municipality of Tawau. Indonesian in Desa Setabu, Sebatik started in 2008. However, the number of Indonesian seaweed farmers, their cultivated areas and production (as well as quality) in Sebatik increased many times higher and faster than the Sabah side of Sebatik. In 2009 more than 1,401 households in Kabupaten Nunukan (including Sebatik) cultivated over 700 ha and have produced 55,098.95 and 116, 73 m.t dried seaweed in 2010 and 2011 respectively. There is a divergence in productions from farming the sea off the same island under similar weather conditions. Which of the eight explanatory factors were affecting production of seaweeds in Sebatik? Using Cobb Douglas production function, Multiple Regression analysis was conducted on 100 samples (50 Sabahan and 50 Indonesian). Results; Variable significant at α = 0.05% are Experience in farming whereas Farm size; Quantity of propagules and Location — Dummy are the variables significant at α 0.01%. Not significant are variables Fuel; Age; Number of family members involved in farming and Education level.

The paper examines relation between Vietnam Airline Domestic service quality and customer satisfaction by gathering opinions from 402 passengers employing Skytrax scale with some modification along with Cronbach’s alpha, EFA and multiple regression analysis. Results show that Vietnam Airline Domestic service quality can be measured by the following six determinants in order of decreasing importance: (1) boarding/deplaning/baggage; (2) check in; (3) in-flight services; (4) reservation; (5) aircraft; and (6) flight crew. All of them are directly proportional effect to customer satisfaction. The paper also offers some suggestions to improve the service quality thereby enhancing the customer satisfaction.
