Inedible Offal as a Hog Feed: Processing and Feeding by Small Slaughterers

Abstract

Excerpts from the report: Processing inedible offal into animal feed has been a regular part of the operations of large-scale packers. Until recently, however, few small-scale slaughterers had been able to salvage this product profitably in this manner. With new methods these plants can now profitably cook it for swine feed. The Farmer Cooperative Service has received requests for research to help small-scale slaughter plants improve their utilization and disposal of inedible offal from individual locker operators, State frozen food locker associations, the National Institute of Locker and Freezer Provisioners and several colleges and universities. The objectives of this study were: (1) To ascertain the scope and importance of the problem, and (2) to obtain information on present methods being used by a representative group of slaughter plants that are processing inedible offal.
