Colour Atlas of Livestock at the Farm, Fair and Abattoir

This book, "Colour Atlas of Livestock at the Farm, Fair and Abattoir", includes 565 factual photographs of food animals in farms, exhibitions, stockyards and abattoirs in 6 chapters (many illustrations were taken at the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto, Canada). Carcass grading of the RWF champions including Angus, Charolais, Hereford, Limousine, Simmental, Main Anjou, Durham and Galloway breeds is described in detail, as well as grade classification of animal carcasses prior to and after April 5, 1992 (beef carcass grading regulations were revised on April 5, 1992). Detailed descriptions of the most common breeds of the livestock and beef carcass grading are also presented. This work is beneficial to all personnel engaged in livestock development including students of agricultural and animal science colleges, livestock and cattle producers, and members of 4H clubs.
