Abstract

The significance of parameters concerning the "transport" (loading, transport, unloading) was analysed as turkey meat inspection tools, in particular "biomass/cage". "birds/cage", "length of transport". The study, carried out on a considerable number of turkeys (81,449 males and 152,705 females) within the period of a whole year, has showed that stressing transport, as marked by some inspection indicators ("dead on arrival", "whole carcasses post mortem condemnation", "birds with traumatic pathology"), does not only affect product losses, but also both slaughtering hygiene and meat quality.
