Abstract:
Abstract The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) yield grade (YG) equation is used to predict the retail yield of beef carcasses, which facilitates a more accurate payment for cattle when they are sold on a grid pricing system that considers carcass composition instead of body weight alone. The current USDA YG equation was developed over 50 yr ago. Arguably, the population of cattle used to develop the YG equation is different than the current diverse U.S. beef cattle supply today. The objectives of this manuscript are to promote the adoption and use of precision agriculture technologies (i.e., camera grading and electronic animal identification) throughout the U.S. beef supply chain as a means to enhance the ability of the USDA YG equation to more accurately predict the retail yield across the population of cattle that contributes to the current U.S. beef supply. Camera grading has improved the accuracy of determining beef carcass retail yield; however, the use of electronic animal identification would allow for additional information to be passed back and forth between the packer, cattle feeder, and producer. Information, such as sex, genetics, medical treatment history, diets consumed, and growth promotant administration, as well as other information could be used to create additional variables for a new augmented USDA YG equation. Herein, fabrication yields demonstrated a 5.6 USDA YG and 12.8% boneless closely trimmed retail cut difference between actual cutout measurements and calculated values from the USDA YG equation for Jersey-influenced cattle. Evidence of such disparities between calculated and actual values warrants a reevaluation of the USDA YG system and consideration for implementing advancements in precision agriculture to improve the prediction of beef carcass retail yield to more accurately account for the large amount of variation in beef carcass retail yield from the cattle in the United States.

Abstract:
The magnitude of breed and sex biases in the prediction of meat yield using a single fat measurement was investigated under commercial conditions. Warm carcasses (n = 174) originating from four purebreeds (Yorkshire, 24 boars, 17 gilts; Landrace, 22 boars, 27 gilts; Hampshire, 24 boars, 15 gilts; Duroc, 21 boars, 24 gilts) weighing close to 80 kg were assessed for fat thickness at the maximum loin with a ruler (current Canadian carcass grading measurement) and at the last rib 70 mm from the midline with a Hennessey Grading Probe. All carcasses were evaluated for retail and lean yield 24 h post-slaughter. At the same carcass weight (78.7 kg), significant differences in both retail and lean yield were found (Hampshire > Landrace; boars > gilts), which largely reflected breed and sex differences in fattening. At the same loin fat thickness (25 mm) breed bias in retail yield amounted to 23 g/kg carcass, while sex bias amounted to only 2 g/kg carcass. At the same last rib, fat thickness breed bias in retail yield was reduced to 12 g/kg carcass, while sex bias increased to 4 g/kg carcass. The effect of changing sites of fat measurement from the loin to the last rib in this study resulted in a substantial reduction in breed bias (1.81 kg to 0.98 kg of retail yield), but to increased sex bias (0.15 kg to 0.28 kg of retail yield). Similar trends were found when lean yield was used as the base instead of retail yield. Prediction equations for retail and lean yield were found to be more precise using last rib fat thickness than those using the maximum loin fat measurement. It was concluded that breed bias would be reduced if last rib fat thickness was used to predict the meat content of pork carcasses.

Abstract:
Even though organic farming is perceived worldwide as the most eco-friendly agricultural method, its significantly lower yield compared to conventional farming poses a major challenge in ensuring food security for the ever-increasing world population. On the other hand, the adverse environmental impacts of conventional agriculture due to the uncontrolled use of key farm inputs like fertilizer and irrigation water cannot be overlooked. In this context, we develop a new eco-label to promote an efficient agricultural method that provides the right balance between yield and environmental impacts through the optimal use of these farm inputs. The proposed eco-label is applied to a game-theoretic model of a farmer-retailer supply chain under demand and yield uncertainties. We consider the demand as a function of the product’s retail price, greenness, and quality; and model yield using a crop-response function. The analytical results derived help optimize the farm inputs, retail prices, and order quantity so that the stakeholders’ profits are maximized. We also investigate the effects of yield information sharing in this supply chain and find that the stakeholders must share yield information when environmentally conscious consumers dominate the market.

Abstract:
Purpose – Sale-and-leaseback has become an increasingly common approach during the last two decades in the investment of high street banks (banking-halls) in the UK. One measure commonly used in making property investment decisions is the all risks yield (ARY) which is associated with the level of rental income. Investors and their advisors need to know which factors are likely to result in the highest ARY when assembling investment portfolios of such properties. The purpose of this paper is to identify those yield influences. Design/methodology/approach – A qualitative multiple-case study was adopted. A literature review generated a hypothesis which was tested by a qualitative study, based upon semi-structured interviews and a questionnaire, to establish the influencing factors. Expert interviews were held with the heads of those three major auction-houses dealing with auctions of all retail bank premises in the Great Britain market, whilst the questionnaire survey involved investment professionals from within the auction-houses. Findings – The study confirmed that the four factors influencing yields and investors’ decision-making when purchasing retail banking premises were tenant banking company (brand names), regional location (north and south super-regions), lot size (hammer price), and tenure (freehold or leasehold). Research limitations/implications – This investigation focuses on Great Britain’s geographical and political area which includes England, Scotland and Wales, but excludes Northern Ireland. This research focuses on banking-halls as a sub-class of retail property investment. The findings form a baseline upon which further research can be conducted on other sub-types of retail property such as high street shops and retail parks. The results will also underpin the development of a quantitative yield predictive model based on regression analysis. Practical implications – To maximize the returns on property investments, investors and their professional advisors can use those factors having the greatest influence on yields to make informed investment decisions for the building of property portfolios. Originality/value – As a sub-sector, bank premises do not necessarily correlate to the generic retail sector. This research consolidates the broad systematic drivers of retail yields into specific factors influencing the ARY of banking-halls. The findings provide better understanding of an active but sparsely analysed sub-market of banking hall investments, and by so-doing help investors to maximize their investment returns.

Abstract:
Abstract: Retail Sukuk is one of the Islamic investment instruments that Muslim investors can choose in investing and can be used by the government as an alternative to financing the APBN deficit. This study aims to determine the effect of liquidity risk, inflation risk, and market risk on the return of Retail State Sukuk (SUKRI). A sampling of Retail Sukuk Series 009 (SR009) was conducted using the purposive sampling method with the consideration that the maturity of the series is the latest and can be traded on the secondary market. Through a multiple linear regression model with the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) analysis technique, the results indicated that simultaneously all independent variables (liquidity, inflation, and interest rates) had a significant effect on return (Yield). While partially the results have shown between each different variable where liquidity has a significant negative effect on yield, interest rates show a significant positive effect. In contrast, inflation has no significant effect on yield. The results of this study can be utilized as a reference for investors in making decisions to choose SUKRI as their investment portfolio because the yield can be viewed from both the liquidity of the Sukuk and macro-economics conditions such as inflation and interest rates. Hence, when the interest rate increases, the investor can decide to invest in SUKRI. In addition, the results of this study can be used as a consideration for the government in regulating risk management policies and determining the returns offered to SUKRI, which will be issued for the next series. Keywords: Sukuk Yield; Liquidity Risk; Retail Sukuk; Multiple Linear Regression. Abstrak: Sukuk ritel merupakan salah satu instrument investasi syariah yang dapat dipilih oleh investor muslim dalam berinvestasi dan dapat digunakan oleh pemerintah sebagai alternatif dalam membiayai defisit APBN. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh risiko likuiditas, risiko inflasi, dan risiko pasar terhadap return Sukuk Negara Ritel (SUKRI). Pengambilan sampel Sukuk Ritel Seri 009 (SR009) dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode purposive sampling dengan pertimbangan jatuh tempo dari seri tersebut paling baru dan dapat diperdagangkan di pasar sekunder. Melalui model regresi linier berganda dengan teknik analisis Ordinary Least Square (OLS), hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa secara simultan semua variabel independen (likuiditas, inflasi, dan suku bunga) berpengaruh signifikan terhadap imbal hasil (Yield). Sedangkan secara parsial hasil yang ditunjukkan antara masing-masing variabel berbeda dimana likuiditas berpengaruh negatif signifikan terhadap Yield, suku bunga menunjukkan pengaruh positif signifikan, sedangkan inflasi tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap Yield. Hasil penelitian ini dapat dijadikan acuan bagi investor dalam mengambil keputusan untuk memilih SUKRI sebagai portofolio investasinya karena imbal hasil dapat ditinjau baik dari likuiditas Sukuk maupun kondisi makroekonomi seperti inflasi dan suku bunga. Sehingga, disaat suku bunga meningkat, maka investor dapat mengambil keputusan untuk berinvestasi di SUKRI. Selain itu, hasil penelitian ini dapat digunakan sebagai bahan pertimbangan bagi pemerintah dalam mengatur kebijakan manajemen risiko dan menentukan imbal hasil yang ditawarkan kepada SUKRI yang akan diterbitkan untuk seri selanjutnya.

Abstract:
The impact of tax incentives on the investment attractiveness of bonds for retail investors is assessed in the article. The paper presents a comparative empirical analysis of investment attractiveness of Russian bonds and bank deposits for domestic retail investors. We identify investment preferences of retail investors in Russia, analyze investment characteristics of deposits in Russian banks and a variety of bonds available for retail investors. Given the tax benefits of the recently introduced Individual Investment Account, we show that the real yield of investment in government bonds is over eight times higher than the yield of bank deposits. Despite higher risks of investing in bonds, we conclude that government bonds taking into account the tax benefits of the Individual Investment Account could be a realistic alternative to bank deposits for Russian retail investors.

Abstract:
Castor bean hulls (CBH), co-products of castor oil extraction, are high in dry matter (DM) and fiber and are emerging as alternative roughage in sheep feed. This could reduce feed costs since other sources of roughage can be more expensive. The effects of replacing Tifton 85 hay with CBH at 0, 33, 66 and 100% in the diet of sheep on the carcass characteristics, weights and yields of retail cuts and carcass measurements were studied. Twenty-eight non-castrated sheep averaging 7 ± 1.4 months of age with an initial weight of 19.5 ± 4.3 kg were slaughtered after 70 days of confinement. There was a linear decline (P ≤ 0.05) in slaughter body weight, empty body weight, hot and cold carcass weight and longissimus muscle area (LMA) as the percentage of dietary CBH increased. A linear decrease (P≤0.05) of the weights of all retail cuts and a quadratic effect (minimum yield of 9.84% with the replacement of 56.9%) of the neck yield were also detected as the percentage of CBH increased. No treatment effects (P > 0.05) on the yield of the other cuts were observed, but there was a linear decline (P ≤ 0.05) in the perimeters of the thorax, leg and rump and the carcass compactness index. Replacing Tifton 85 hay with CBH in sheep diets is not recommended because it decreases the slaughter body weight, cold and hot carcass weight, retail cut weights and morphometric measurements.

Abstract:
The production of adult steers for beef could be a profitable use of the territory in some mountain areas in the south of Europe, where this production is nearly inexistent, owing to an increase in the demand for meat from adult animals in specialized markets. The objective of this study was to evaluate the profitability of beef production in three breeds adapted to these areas but varying greatly in their mature size. The studied breeds were a specialized meat breed Limousin, a dual-purpose breed – Brown Swiss breed and – a Spanish local breed Asturiana de los Valles. Higher growth rates (P < 0.05) and higher carcass weights (P < 0.05) were achieved by Brown Swiss and Limousin. In relation to carcass value, better results of dressing percentage (P < 0.001), conformation (P < 0.001) and saleable meat percentages (P < 0.001) were obtained byLimousin. Due to preferences of the adult steers market for carcass with high fatness, Brown Swiss and Limousin could be more suitable to make this production profitable than Asturiana de los Valles (4.7 and 4.2 vs. 2.7, respectively, on the EUROP scale).

Abstract:
Yield, input, and economic data from research plots in central Mississippi are being used to test the economic potential of organic vegetable crop production. A six-part, multi-year rotation, including winter and summer cover crops, has been set up to generate yield, cost, and economic return data from vegetables produced in Mississippi using methods allowed by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture National Organic Standards and accepted by local growers employing pesticide-free and other similar management methods. Data being collected include labor and input costs, yields, and market prices for harvested crops. Marketable produce is being sold through a grower-retailer at a farmer's market. During 2004, the first full year of the rotation, 10 vegetable species were included in the plots. Pest pressure has generally been minimal. With one exception [one of two potato (Solanum tuberosum) cultivars failed to produce a good stand], all crops planted have produced fair to excellent yields. Crops generating high retail prices in this study include potatoes, snap beans (Phaseolus vulgaris), and leaf lettuce (Lactuca sativa). In the future, the yield and price data being generated will be combined with new and existing cost data to create enterprise and production budgets for use by perspective and existing organic vegetable growers.

Abstract:
The study was carried out to develop retail cuts, evaluate the effect of the method of pelage (removal/scalding) on the yield and organoleptic quality of smoked grasscutter (Tryonomys swinderianus). Sixteen grass cutters were purchased from Abico bush meat market in Benin City, Nigeria. The pelages were removed by water and fire scalding. Some were brined in 15% salt solution for 3 hrs while others were not. The carcasses were cut into seven retail cuts. All samples were smoke-dried for 6 hrs. Sensory evaluation was done by a 12-man panelusing a 5-point hedonic scale. The results showed that there were significant differences (P<0.05) in the yield of fresh salted and non-salted grass cutter samples. There was also significant difference (P<0.05) in the smoked yield of salted smoked grasscutter with WSS giving the highest yield of 1.03 kg. The method of pelage removal did not have any significant effect (P>0.05) but there was significant effects in the smoked yields. Sensory evaluation showed significant differences (P<0.05) in the colour, tenderness, juiciness, flavor and overall acceptability. Salted samples had the highest scores all organoleptic properties. It was recommended that further studies be carried out to evaluate the effects of salting and smoking on economic and sensory parameters of other sources of bush meat in Nigeria.

Abstract:
Twenty-seven male Saanen kids were used in a completely randomized design to investigate the effect of feed restriction on retail and biological carcass yields, proportion of carcass retail cuts, carcass compactness, leg tissue composition, and ribeye area (REA). Animals were assigned to one of the following treatments: 0 (free access to feed: ad libitum), 30 or 60% of feed restriction. Initial body weight (BW) averaged 5 kg and animals were slaughtered when they reached 20 kg BW. Data were submitted to regression analysis as function of feed restriction. Feed restriction reduced carcass weight, retail cuts weight, and chump proportion and increased neck proportion. Bone proportion also increased while muscle tissue and fat proportion (including subcutaneous fat) decreased with feed restriction. Although REA and carcass compactness were both affected by feed restriction, they can be used to predict the proportion of carcass muscle. Carcass traits of Saanen kids were not negatively affected by 30% of feed restriction.

Full text
Abstract:
The retail value of yellow and red bell peppers is usually three to five times higher than that of the green ones. However, colored bell pepper production in Alabama is presently limited because most growers do not wait the additional 3 to 6 days needed for marketable green pepper to develop color. Hence, drip-irrigated yellow `Admiral' and `Goldcoast' and red `Bell Star' and `Capsitrano' bell peppers were grown in single row and bare-ground, and harvested as needed between July and October 1997 at the 0/3 (green), 1/3 or 2/3 colored stages. The interaction variety × picking method was not signficant (P > 0.50). Early (9,136 kg/ha) and total (32,363 kg/ha) yields of green (0/3) peppers were significantly (P < 0.05) higher than those of the 1/3 and 2/3 colored ones (5,166 and 27,235 kg/ha, respectively). Higher green yields were mainly due to increased numbers of marketable fruits rather than increased fruit size. The longer the pods stayed on the plants, the more likely was sunscald to occur. Retail values (/ha) for the early fancy grade were $10,800 and $20,500 for the green and colored peppers, respectively (using $2 and $6/kg, respectively). These results suggest that the present higher retail value of the colored bell peppers off-sets the lower expected yields.

Abstract:
With the increasing public awareness of environmental issues, green production has become an important issue for supply chain management. This study proposes an analytical model to investigate the dual-channel green supply chain decisions of a retailer and a competitive supplier; the latter suffers from unreliable production yield. The retailer’s environmental responsibility is considered as a two-echelon supply chain in which the retailer promotes the green product in their marketplace through green marketing. This problem is analyzed and modeled under three available channel strategies, considered in the order in which channel selections are made: a single online channel strategy, a single retail channel strategy, and a dual-channel strategy. The results show that the wholesale price of the manufacturer and the green-marketing effect of the retailer increase with the improvement in the level of the green production technology. Interestingly, the result reveals that a retailer’s expected profit is unimodal in the production technology level under the dual-channel strategy, which suggests that the retailer may not be incentivized to encourage the manufacturer to improve its production technology once a threshold has been reached. Further, we develop the channel selection: the retailer is strictly better off in the single retail channel scenario than that in the dual-channel scenario; however, while the unreliable supplier is better off in the single online channel scenario than that in the single retail channel scenario, its best option is still the dual-channel strategy. Additionally, numerical results illustrate that the expected profits of supply chain parties decrease with the improvement in customer acceptance of the online channel.

Abstract:
In Islamic finance, Sukuk instruments are similar to the bond market in conventional finance and are intended to increase long-term investment capital. However, according to Sharia, Sukuk means there is no uncertainty (Garar), interest (usury) and gambling (Maisir).This is also new in the financial market in Islamic Bank. The government uses Sukuk as an instrument for financing the state budget, and Sukuk financing has contributed to the development and financing of state projects. The amount of Sukuk issuance volume is influenced by external factors such as macroeconomic conditions and internal factors, namely prices and yields of Sukuk. The problem is whether inflation, exchange rates, Sukuk prices and returns affect the volume of Sukuk issuance. Therefore, this research aims to determine the effect of macroeconomic variables (inflation and exchange rates), Sukuk prices and Sukuk yields on the volume of Retail Sukuk issuance in Indonesia, using the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) research model and the assistance of econometrics EViews 9. The data used in this study are time-series data from April 2015 to March 2018, with a research sample of Retail Sukuk with the latest maturity in March 2018, namely Retail Sukuk SR-007 series. The results of the study show that the inflation and price variables have a long-term significant influence on the volume of Retail Sukuk SR-007 issuance and only yield variables that do not influence both the long- and short-term, while the exchange rate variable has significant long- and short-term effects.

Abstract:
Abstract The USDA yield grade (YG) equation is used to predict the cutability of beef carcasses for the more accurate payment of cattle when sold in grid pricing systems. In the United States, an increasing percent of Jersey genetics are being implemented into dairy farms, which is resulting in a greater percent of Jersey genetics contributing to the fed beef cattle supply. Cattle (n = 91) were fed a similar diet, harvested, and fabricated into boneless closely trimmed retail cuts (BCTRC). Inconsistencies occurred between the calculated USDA YG and %BCTRC compared to actual measures from purebred and crossbred Jersey cattle. Therefore, the objective was to evaluate the validity of the current USDA YG equation to predict the cutability of purebred and crossbred Jersey cattle raised for natural markets. Data were analyzed in SAS with the mixed model: Yijklm = μ + (EQ×HCW)ij + (EQ×BFT)ik + (EQ×LMA)il + (EQ×KPH)im + eijklm, where EQi = the USDA predicted estimates or actual Jersey measurements. Jersey YG [Y=9.66+(0.005×HCW)+(0.54×BFT)+(-0.035×LMA)+(0.083×KPH)] and %BCTRC [Y=34.68+(-0.012×HCW)+(-1.01×BFT)+(0.081×LMA)+(-0.192×KPH)] equations more accurately predicted the retail yield of the purebred and crossbred Jersey cattle in the present study compared to the current USDA equations. The parameter estimates for the y-intercept (P ≤ 0.01), BFT (P ≤ 0.01), and LMA (P = 0.06) were different between the current USDA YG and the Jersey YG equations and current %BCTRC and the Jersey %BCTRC equations. Mean differences between the calculated and actual YG and % BCTRC were 5.8 USDA YG and 13.1% BCTRC. In conclusion, the current USDA YG equation over predicted the retail yield of purebred and crossbred Jersey cattle in the current study. Evidence of such disparities between calculated and actual values may warrant a reevaluation for the use of the USDA YG for the prediction of beef carcass retail yield for fed cattle with Jersey influence.

Abstract:
We introduce a version of the Huff retail expenditure model, where retail demand depends on households’ access to retail centers. Household-level survey data suggest that total retail visits in a system of retail centers depends on the relative location pattern of stores and customers. This dependence opens up an important question—could overall visits to retail centers be increased with a more efficient spatial configuration of centers in planned new towns? To answer this question, we implement the model as an Urban Network Analysis tool in Rhinoceros 3D, where facility patronage can be analyzed along spatial networks and apply it in the context of the Punggol New Town in Singapore. Using fixed household locations, we first test how estimated store visits are affected by the assumption of whether shoppers come from homes or visit shops en route to local public transit stations. We then explore how adjusting both the locations and sizes of commercial centers can maximize overall visits, using automated simulations to test a large number of scenarios. The results show that location and size adjustments to already planned retail centers in a town can yield a 10% increase in estimated store visits. The methodology and tools developed for this analysis can be extended to other context for planning and right-sizing retail developments and other public facilities so as to maximize both user access and facilities usage.

Abstract:
Two hundred and four sows were slaughtered in seven weight classes (WCs) from < 99.9-kg to > 225-kg carcass weight in 25-kg increments and 11 fat classes (FCs) from < 9.9-mm to > 55-mm backfat depth in 5-mm increments. Backfat thickness (probe fat) and loin muscle depth (probe lean) were measured on the left side of the carcass between 3rd and 4th last rib 7 cm from midline by electronic probe. The left side was cut into four primals: shoulder, ham, loin and belly. Shoulder, ham and loin were then separated into trimmed commercial cuts to determine commercial yield and then defatted and deboned to determine retail yield, lean yield, fat yield and bone yield. Dressing percentage was lowest for those sows in fat class 1 (77.4%) and highest for those in fat class 11 (83.7%). Percentage of shoulder and ham in the carcass side decreased, while the percentage of the loin and belly increased as WC and FC increased. FC produced significant effect on the percentage of the shoulder, loin and belly, whereas WC had significant influence only on the proportion of the shoulder and belly. There was a significant WC × FC interaction (P < 0.002) upon the percentage of the belly yield. The percentages of commercial yield, retail yield, lean yield and bone yield were reduced, and that of fat yield increased as WC and FC increased, but WC only produced significant effects on the percentage of lean and bone yield. Carcass composition of cull sows was better correlated to backfat thickness than carcass weight, since the increase in carcass weight as live weight increased was primarily fat. Key words: Carcass composition, sows, lean yield

Abstract:
CARCASSES of thirty African Dwarf ewes had a yield of 42.5%, about 5 mm backfat thickness and a loin eye of about 8cm2 Primal cuts made up 85% of the carcass. The best carcasses came from ewes slaughtered between two and four years of age. Average composition of retail cuts was 66.5% muscle, 26.5% bone and 7.0% fat. Young ewes were superior to young rams both in dressing percent (yield) and primal cuts. The ewes dressed 44% as compared to 40%; their retail cuts contained 67% muscle and 26% bone against 65% and 28% respectively for rams. Compared with mutton sheep of the temperate zone the West African Dwarf stand only 4/5 as high and are 2/3 long, while weighing only 1/4 to 1/3 that of European sheep. Yet the leg, the preferred cut, was 36% of the dressed carcass is compared to European mutton.

Abstract:
This study discusses the effect of Bank Indonesia Certificates, Inflation, Exchange Rate, Government Revenue, and Government Expenditure to Yield Retail Sukuk SR008 using the Vector Auto Regression (VAR) – Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) method. The result of this study based on the VECM test results, it can be concluded that a significant variable that positively influences yield in the short term are Inflation and Government Revenue variable. In the short term, inflation and government revenue affect the yield requested by investors. The government will respond to inflation fluctuations by changing Bank Indonesia Certificates, and ultimately this will affect yield. Declining government revenue will cause an increase in the issuance of SBN, and this in the law of demand and supply will affect yield. While in the long term, the variables that significantly affect positively are the Bank Indonesia Certificates, Inflation, Government Revenue. As in the short term, inflation and government revenue affect yield in long term. Then the variable that affects negatively is the Government Expenditure. As in the short term, government spending in the long term also does not affect the SR008 yield. As in the short term, inflation and state income affect yield.

Abstract:
Cattle sired by Piedmontese or Wagyu bulls were bred and grown within pasture-based nutritional systems followed by feedlot finishing. Effects of low (mean 28.6 kg, n = 120) and high (38.8 kg, n = 120) birth weight followed by slow (mean 554 g/day, n = 119) or rapid (875 g/day, n = 121) growth to weaning on carcass, yield and beef quality characteristics at about 30 months of age were examined. Low birth weight calves weighed 56 kg less at 30 months of age, had 32 kg lighter carcasses, and yielded 18 kg less retail beef compared with high birth weight calves. Composition of carcasses differed little due to birth weight when adjusted to an equivalent carcass weight (380 kg). Calves grown slowly to weaning were 40 kg lighter at 30 months of age compared with those grown rapidly to weaning. They had 25 kg smaller carcasses which yielded 12 kg less retail beef than their counterparts at 30 months of age, although at an equivalent carcass weight yielded 5 kg more retail beef and had 5 kg less fat trim. Neither low birth weight nor slow growth to weaning had adverse effects on beef quality measurements. No interactions between sire-genotype and birth weight, or growth to weaning, were evident for carcass, yield and beef quality traits. Although restricted growth during fetal life or from birth to weaning resulted in smaller animals that yield less meat at about 30 months of age, adverse effects on composition due to increased fatness, or on indices of beef quality, were not evident at this age or when data were adjusted to an equivalent carcass weight.

This study was conducted with the objective to evaluate carcass weight, meat yield and primal meat cuts of beef from Arado, Boran, Barka, Raya and nondescript cattle breeds slaughtered at export abattoirs in Ethiopia. Data was collected from Abergelle and Melgawendo export abattoirs in 2011. The result of the study revealed that the average live weight, warm carcass weight, cold carcass weight and warm dressing percentage of cattle slaughtered at the abattoirs studied were 241.41&plusmn;0.37 kg, 106.93&plusmn;0.21 kg, 101.19&plusmn;0.18 kg and 44.21&plusmn;0.05%, respectively. Live weight, carcass weight and dressing percentage were differ (P &lt; 0.001) between abattoirs, seasons and breeds of cattle slaughtered. Average meat yield and yield percentage of cattle slaughtered at Abergelle abattoir was 61.56&plusmn;0.94 kg and 67.81&plusmn;0.33%, respectively. Meat yield and weight of primal meat cuts were different (P &lt; 0.001) between breeds of cattle. Yield percentage was significantly (p &lt; 0.05) different between seasons. Retailed meat yield was significantly predicted (R2 = 88.1%) from slaughter weights, Topside (R2 = 77.86), Silverside (75.64), Knuckle (R2 = 70.13), Striploin (R2 = 70.73), Tenderloin (R2 = 61.33), Shank (R2 = 64.55) and Rumpcap (R2 = 64.48). From the study it was concluded that Boran cattle was better in dressing percentage compared to most cattle breeds in Africa while the dressing percentage and meat yield of Arado, Barka and Raya breeds were less than the percent and yield reported for other zebu cattle in Africa. A strategy should be devised to improve the carcass weight, dressing percentage and retail able meat yield from local cattle in Ethiopia.

Abstract:
Purpose of the study: The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of the five dimensions of entrepreneurial orientation (EO): innovativeness, autonomy, risk-taking, proactiveness, and competitive aggressiveness on the business performance of retail pharmacies. Methodology: This study used a quantitative research approach. The data from 136 pharmacists operating in different retail pharmacies in the Kingdom of Bahrain were collected through a structured questionnaire. Multiple regression was applied to test the five hypotheses that were developed based on the literature review by using SPSS. Main Findings: The study found that there is a significant positive association between pharmacy business performance and two dimensions of EO: innovativeness and risk-taking. However, autonomy, proactiveness, and competitive aggressiveness have no significant association with the business performance of retail pharmacies in Bahrain. Yet, the findings showed that not all EO dimensions have a significant relationship with business performance; therefore, the study suggested that retail pharmacies must be careful while executing EO. Applications of this study: The findings of this study is anticipated to help retail pharmacies to develop their business, as it may offer significant insight and empirical evidence for pharmacy owners or decision-makers to adopt entrepreneurial orientation in order to achieve superior performance and growth in their businesses. Novelty/Originality of the Study: This study contributes to the entrepreneurial orientation literature in the retail pharmacy sector. The findings of this study show that the entrepreneurs in the retail pharmacy sector need to focus merely on two dimensions of EO (Innovativeness and risk-taking) to yield better performance. Moreover, this study is one of the limited studies that provide empirical support for the influence of EO on the retail pharmacy industry. This is a pioneering empirical study to examine the influence of relevant dimensions of entrepreneurial orientation on the business performance of retail pharmacies in the gulf countries and the Kingdom of Bahrain in particular.

Abstract:
AbstractIn this paper, we analyze profit margins and markups of Fair Trade (FT) wines sold in the United States. We are particularly interested in whether and to what extent the FT cost impulse in production is passed along to the supply chain. We draw on a limited sample of about 470 South African wines sold in Connecticut and New Jersey in the fall of 2016; about 90 of them are certified FT. For these wines we have free on board export prices, wholesale prices, and retail prices, which allows us to compute wholesale and retail margins and analyze the FT treatment effect. We run OLS, 2SLS, and propensity score matching models and find evidence of asymmetrical pricing behavior. While wholesalers seem to fully pass-through the FT cost effect, retailers appear to amplify the cost effect. As a result, at the retail level, FT wines yield significantly higher margins than their non-FT counterparts. (JEL Classifications: L11, L31, L43, L81, Q17)

Abstract:
This project studied the effect of selection for divergence in live muscle score (MS) in a herd of Angus cattle on feedlot performance, feed efficiency, carcass characteristics and carcass yield of two cohorts of steer progeny. Steers from lines selected for low muscling (Low, n = 91, average MS = D–) and high muscling without (High, n = 76, average MS = C+) and with (HighHet, n = 61, average MS = B) one copy of the 821 del11 myostatin mutation were studied. Steers entered the feedlot for grain finishing at 16–18 months of age. Individual feed intake was measured during finishing, after which the steers were slaughtered to obtain commercial carcass and yield data. Low, High and HighHet steers had similar weights at feedlot entry (442, 434, 441 kg, P = 0.11) and grew at similar rates during feed intake testing (1.42, 1.38, 1.37 kg/day, P = 0.3), but net feed intake declined with increasing muscling (0.34, –0.06, –0.40 kg DM/day, P < 0.001). Dressing percentage (54.2%, 54.9%, 56.5%, P < 0.001), retail meat yield (67.5%, 68.4%, 71.4%, P < 0.001) and retail meat : bone ratio (3.40, 3.55, 3.83, P < 0.001) progressively increased from Low to High to HighHet steers. There were no significant differences for carcass rump and rib fat, or carcass fat yield between Low and High steers, but Low steers had higher marbling (P < 0.001). HighHet steers had the least fat across all carcass fat measurements, including marbling (all P < 0.008). These results demonstrate that muscling was increased by selection for visual MS in British-breed cattle and resulted in greater meat yield via greater muscle to bone ratios.

Fifteen Pabna bulls having five in each age groups of 6 to12, 13 to 24 and 25 to 36 months were fed ad libitum mix silages of Splendida (Setaria splendida) and Andrpogan (Andropogon gyunus) grasses (1:1 fresh) and supplemented with a concentrate mixture at 1% of live weight (LW) for a period of 72 days. With the increase of age, and subsequently LW (initial LW: 98.2, 182.6 and 288 kg, respectively), there was significant decrease in dry matter (DM) intake as % LW (<0.05; 2.94, 2.61 and 2.36, respectively) and increased daily gain (<0.01; 294, 519 and 597 g/d, respectively). However, the feed conversion ratio (FCR) (>0.05; 10.88, 10.10 and 12.24, respectively) and DM digestibility (>0.05; 51.0, 48.1 and 49.1 %, respectively) of bulls were remained unchanged. In case of carcass yield characteristics, significantly lower yield grade (<0.01; 1.79, 1.27 and 0.20, respectively) of bulls of 25 to 36 years produced higher closely trimmed boneless retail cuts (CTBRC) (<0.01; 50.47, 51.64 and 54.14 %, respectively), retail cut (<0.01; 76.14, 78.55 and 83.48 %, respectively) and meat quality index (MQI) (<0.01; 67.28, 67.89 and 69.07, respectively) compared to younger bulls. It may, therefore, be recommended that beef cattle farming with native Pabna bulls of 24 to 36 months will give more daily LW gain and produce more CTBRC at a similar FCR compared to younger ones.Bang.

Abstract:
Abstract Lamb production in tropical areas is conducted under heat stress in extensive grazing conditions of naturalized pastures (NP). The average daily gain (ADG) and yields of hot (HCY) and cold (CCY) carcass, wholesale cuts (WSC); neck (N), shoulder (SL), ribs 5–12 (RIB), loin (LN) and leg (LG), and detail cuts (DTC); shoulder chops (SCH), french chops (FCH), ribs (RS), back leg (BL) and shanks (SH) of 12 lambs (X = 19.4 kg) rotationally grazed (3 d occupation and 24 d resting period) for 154 or 238 d were determined. The Lambs grazed &gt;8 h NP, grass hay and water were offered ad libitum, 150 g/d of a supplement (12% CP), and mineral blocks. Weekly weights were used to determine ADG. Lambs were slaughtered at 22 (SW1) or 35 kg (SM2) to determine HCY and CCY, and WSC and DTC yield as % of cold carcass weight. Performance data was analyzed as a randomized experimental (CRD) design over time. Carcass and cut yields data were analyzed as a CRD with 6 replicates per treatment. Lambs fed during 238-d had similar ADG than those fed 154-d (68.14 vs.47.74 g/d). SW1 and SW2 had similar percentages of HCY (35.21 vs. 38.14) and CCY (34.48 vs. 37.40). The WSC as % of cold carcass weight, N (6.43 vs. 7.06), SL (29.95 vs. 30.20), RIB (16.10 vs. 16.95), LN (10.84 vs. 11.33) and LG (36.51 vs. 34.44) were similar for SW1 and SW2. Yield of SCH and SH was lower (P &lt; 0.05) for SW1 (15.80 and 8.11) than SW2 (23.00 and 9.11), but FCH (8.49 vs. 8.57), RS (6.89 vs. 7.00) and BL (36.52 vs 34.45) were similar. In summary, lambs slaughtered at 35 kg improved the retail cut yield, but did not influence ADG, HCY, CCY, and WCY compared to lighter lambs.

Abstract:
After the Internet revolution, Internet of Things (IoT) is expected to be the next big technological change, connecting equipment as well as everyday objects to help businesses explore new ways of creating and delivering value. In the Oil & Gas industry context, IoT has been deployed extensively in the upstream sector and also to some extent in the mid-stream sector. However, it’s implementation in the downstream (retail) sector has been limited. This paper explores the applicability and impact of deploying an IoT solution at a fuel retail outlet. In our experiment, a live outlet was chosen in Kolkata, where a limited IoT solution was deployed, for a period of 3 months. Our research shows that IoT implementation can yield significant operational benefits by reducing the response times, leading to increased operational uptime and hence sales. It can also help improve the root cause analysis process by providing increased data to identify the issue(s).

Abstract:
The characteristics and retail yield of carcases of 482 Angus, Charolais and Hereford sired progeny out of straightbred Hereford (HxH), and first-cross Brahman x Hereford (BxH), Simmental x Hereford (SxH) and Friesian x Hereford (FxH) dams were evaluated. The cattle had been raised and slaughtered for either the vealer (both sexes), yearling domestic (both sexes) or the heavy export steer market. The data were analysed within market type, and at a constant age at slaughter (281, 478 and 829 days for vealer, yearling domestic and heavy export carcases respectively) and also at a constant hot P8 fat depth (4.6, 7.8 and 14.9 mm for the three markets respectively) and constant hot carcase weight (160, 200 and 343 kg for the three markets respectively). At a constant age, carcases of Charolais sired progeny were significantly (P < 0.05) heavier (8-16%, depending on market type), leaner, had larger eye muscle area and higher dressing percentage than those of Angus and Hereford sired progeny. This resulted in 12 to 17% (P < 0.05) more kg of boneless saleable meat (retail yield) from carcasses of Charolais sired progeny. At a constant hot P8 fat depth, the magnitude of the sire breed differences increased, whereas at a constant hot carcase weight, the differences became non-significant or were reduced in magnitude. At a constant age, progeny of BxH dams had higher ( P < 0.05) dressing percentage than those of the other dam breeds for all market types except the vealer market. Progeny of FxH dams had more (P < 0.05) channel and kidney fat than those of the other dam breeds, even at a constant hot P8 fat depth. Retail yield, as a percentage of the boned side, was highest for carcases of progeny of BxH dams and lowest for those of progeny of FxH dams (70.2% and 70.3% v. 69.1% and 69.2%, for vealer and yearling domestic carcases respectively, at a constant age). Sire and dam breed effects for the individual primal cuts, as percentages of the boned side, were not significant for most of the primal cuts, and where significant, the differences were very small.

Abstract:
Meat quality and carcass traits were measured for 2180 feedlot finished Brahman (BRAH) and Tropical Composite (TCOMP) steers to investigate genetic and non-genetic influences on shear force, and other meat quality traits. Genetic and phenotypic correlations were estimated between carcass and meat quality traits, and with live animal measurements collected in steers from weaning to feedlot exit, and their heifer half-sibs up to their first mating, which were managed in Australia’s tropical or subtropical environments. Left sides of carcasses were tenderstretched (hung by the aitch-bone) while right sides were conventionally hung (by the Achilles tendon). Tenderstretching reduced mean shear force by 1.04 kg, and phenotypic variance by 77% of that observed in conventionally hung sides. Genotype differences existed for carcass traits, with TCOMP carcasses significantly heavier, fatter, with greater eye muscle area, and lower retail beef yield than BRAH. TCOMP had lower shear force, and higher percent intramuscular fat. Meat quality and carcass traits were moderately heritable, with estimates for shear force and compression of 0.33 and 0.19 for BRAH and 0.32 and 0.20 for TCOMP respectively. In both genotypes, estimates of heritability for carcass traits (carcass weight, P8 and rib fat depths, eye muscle area and retail beef yield) were consistently moderate to high (0.21 to 0.56). Shear force and compression were genetically correlated with percent intramuscular fat (r g = –0.26 and –0.57, respectively), and meat colour (r g = –0.41 and –0.68, respectively). For TCOMP, lower shear force was genetically related to decreased carcass P8 fat depth (r g = 0.51). For BRAH steers and heifers measured at pasture, fatness traits and growth rates were genetically correlated with shear force, although the magnitude of these relationships varied with time of measurement. Net feed intake was significantly genetically correlated with carcass rib fat depth (r g = 0.49), eye muscle area (r g = –0.42) and retail beef yield (r g = –0.61). These results demonstrate that selection to improve production and carcass traits can impact meat quality traits in tropically adapted cattle, and that genotype specific evaluations will be necessary to accommodate different genetic relationships between meat quality, carcass and live animal traits.
