In this episode, we welcome Dr. Derek Vote, Head of Grading Operations for the Fed Beef Division, as we explore key insights into the use of video and photographic technology. Our discussion highlights how instrument-based technological tools are revolutionizing beef carcass grading. We break down how marbling, rib-eye area, and fat thickness are measured objectively through video imaging, data capture, and precision evaluation. Discover how these innovations are helping to standardize grading and enhance decision-making throughout the beef supply chain.
