15 15 The yield grade range is 1 0 to 5 9 The committee will attempt to select carcasses within this range However if a higher or lower grade is determined it should be recorded as a 1 0 or 5 9 All answers are to be in tenths i e 1 5 2 0 3 8 etc And low numerical yield grade scores 1 or 2 Excessively fat animals have numerically high yield grade scores 4 or 5 with lower cutability The four factors used to calculate yield grade are 1 12th rib fat thickness 2 Ribeye area 3 Kidney pelvic and heart fat KPH 4 Hot carcass weight Fat Thickness To determine yield grade fat
Meat graders assign a yield grade to a carcass by evaluating 1 the amount of external fat 2 the amount of kidney pelvic and heart fat 3 the area of the rib eye muscle and 4 the hot carcass weight Graders evaluate the amount of external fat by measuring the thickness of fat over the outside of the rib eye muscle at the 12th rib Yield grades can be calculated based on the following equation Yield Grade 2 5 2 5 BF 0 2 KPH 0 0038 HCW 0 32 REA Calculate the values within the parenthesis first and then add or subtract as necessary
