Really interesting thread all thanks. I'm in the process of working out how many of my recent litters to keep and grow on so all this input is really helpful.

Can someone tell me how much saleable pork you get from a carcase %age wise?

If you know your live weight of your porker or finisher then multiply it by 0.68 and that will give you your dress weight.   Head off of course.

It works ....

Hi - I am new to this forum and have just sold my first pork from my herd of Gloucester Old Spots. I sold three half pigs and had one made up into sausages and half for myself. I love the presentation of the pork boxes. Can you please let me know where you can get these boxes for the meat, as it looks so much better than ordinary cardboard boxes. Many thanks Teresa
