Summary

Meat & Livestock Australia (MLA) are undertaking the red meat
pilot trials for the RR4P 'Health for Wealth project', which will be funded through this initiative.

The technical advisor assisted ISC in collating and consolidating all the key findings, learnings and messages for each red meat pilot trial into a final report.

The technical advisor also assisted the eight plant personnel to prepare key findings and messages for their pilot final reports.

Benefits to industry

The project has demonstrated proof-of-concept that individual carcase disease and defect data can be effectively and efficiently transferred from beef abattoirs to producers through existing industry infrastructure, such as LDL and NLIS and/or through company owned proprietary feedback systems.
