FOOD SAFETY PROGRAMS,Australia's commitment to food safety, integrity andproduct quality compliments our focus on meeting thedemands of our international customers.
To maintain Australia's high product standards,the Ausiralian red meat industry and the AustralianGovernment have worked together to developstnngent standards and quality assurance systemsthrough the entire supply chain. These standardsand quality assurance systems are based on anassessment of risk and sound science to meet therequirements of our international customers, withindependently audited systems.
Quality AssuranceA sectors of Australia's Red Meat industry arecurently able to implement systems that operate-.der rdependently audited Quality Assurance (QA)3'.r'ar.s Cerre oped in partnership by the Australian-r-s.'.. gc','ern.nent and other relevant bodies.

This Act governs all aspects of how meat is handiedduring processing. Each export meat abattoir hasa veterinary offlcer from AQIS - the AustralianGovernment agency responsible for meat hygiene,safety regulation and certification - to verify that thelegislation is being correctly implemented.
All registered abattoirs are required to have qualifiedinspectors stationed in each export meat abattoir to:
a Carry out daily hygiene inspections beforeoperations begin each day;
'a Monitor quality assurance and meat safetythroughout the production process; and
Conduct ante-mortem and post-mortem healthinspections to ensure the safety and suitability ofproducts of human consumption.

BOVINE CARCASE ASSESSMENT SCHEME(CHILLER ASSESSMENT LANGUAGE)
chiller Assessment was developed to enable AUS-N4EAT accreditedEnterprises to assess, grade or class carcases using a uniform set ofstandards under controlled conditions. The scheme provides a means ofdescribing meat characteristics and of classifying product prior to packag-ing. These characteristics include the colour of meat and fat. the amountof marbling, eye muscle area, the rib fat and the maturity of the carcase.
Assessments are made by qualified assessors and results are allocatedto the carcase and provide a means of (carcase) selection according toindividual contract specifications.
lre AUS-M EAT Chiller Assessment Language is only available to AUS-MEAT accredited Enterprises, their clientsaro'suppliers.
BEEF and VEAL - MEAT COLOURMeat Colour is the predominant colour of the rib eye muscle (M. longissimus dorsi). Meat colour
(Beef and/or Veal) is assessed on the chilled carcase at the bloomed rib eye muscle area (M. longissimusdorsi) and is scored against the AUS-MEAT colour reference standards.
BEEF MEAT COLOUR
fiMMMMWWWWColours displayed show the darkest colour of each grading and it is a guide only, not a true representation.
VEAL MEAT COLOUR
NWMMMCalaurs displayed show the darkest colour of each grading
and it is a guide only, not a true representation.
FAI COLOURFat colour is the intermuscular fat lateral to the rib eye muscle. lt isassessed on the chilled carcase and scored against the AUS-MEAT fatcolour reference standards. Fat colour is assessed by comparing theintermuscular fat colour lateral to the M. longissimus dorsi and adjacentto the M. iliocostalis and is scored against the AUS-MEAT Fat Colourreference standards.
.ffitrfrwll ll ll lt'T::i'
MARBLING
(SUBCUTANEOUS RIB FAT MEASUREMENT)RIB FAI MEASUREMENT
The AUS-MEAT Marbling system provides anindication of the amount of marbling in beef . The MSAmarbling system provides an additional indication ofthe fineness of distribution and the size of marblingpieces. The AUS-MEAT marbling evaluation system andthe MSA marbling evaluation system can be used in
harmony to provide more detail about the product.
Marbling rs the fai that is deposited between musclefibres of the M. longissimus dorsi muscle. Marbling isassessed and scored against the AUS-MEAT Marblingreference standards.
Marbling is an assessment of the chilled carcase andscored by comparing the proportion of marble fat tomeat at the surface of the assessment site which lieswithin the M. Iongissimus dorsi boundary. Marbling is
assessed against the proportion of marbling to meatdepicted in the Marbling reference standards.
Chiller Assessors who assess marbling above marblingscore 6 must hold a high marbling endorsement aswell as holding the standard Chiller Assessmentqualification.
Subcutaneous Rib Fat measurement is a measurement in millimeters ofthe thickness of subcutaneous fat at a specified rib.
TOTAL RIB FAT MEASUREMENTTotal Rib Fat measurement is a measurement in millimetres of thethickness of subcutaneous fat and intermuscular fat at the specified rib.
CARCASE MATURIryMaturity is an estimation of the development of aBeef carcase determined by the degree of ossificationof the dorsal spinous processes of the vertebrae,the fusing of the vertebrae, and the shape and colourof the rib bones.

LAYER PACKED (LP}
lndicates the product is packed into a carlon containing two or more layersof meat with each layer separated by an approved material. Layer packedmeat is most commonly used to layer small cut items (e.9. Flank Steaks orBackstraps) . Layer Packed uses the cipher 'LP'.
MUtrI WRAPPED (MW
Multi Wrapped indicates the meat has been packed in a single bag orcovering and contains two or more cut items. This method is most commonlyused for small and medium sized primal cut items (e.9. Chuck Tenders -Lamb Racks). Multi Wrapped uses the cipher 'MW'.
TRAY PACKED (TP)
Tray packed meat is when the meat is packed into an open container ortray, and covered with a film. This is mainly used in smaller primal cuts orporlioned meal. Tray Packed uses fhe cipher nTP'.

MEAT STANDARDS AUSTRALIA
Meat standards Australia (MSA") Beef Grading Program predictsEating Quality by grade, cooking method and ageing requirementto guarantee the tenderness of beef for consumers.
The MSA grade/s are determined by calculating the direct andinteractive effects of factors which affect beef eating quality. Such factorsinclude breed, sex, marbling, age, growth history, carcase quality attributes,processing methods and treatments.

BEEF CARCASE GRADING SYSTEM
MSA MARBLING (MSAMB) MEAT COLOUR (MC)
The MSA marbling system provides an indication ofthe fineness of distribution and the size of marblingpieces. The AUS-MEAT Marbling system provides
an indication of the amount of marbling in beef. The
MSA marbling evaluation system and the AUS-MEATmarbling evaluation system can be used in harmonyto provide more detail about the product.
Marbling is the fat that is deposited between individual
muscle fibres of the longissimus dorsi muscle.
The assessment of marbling provides an indication
of disiribution and piece size as well as the amountof marbling. The steps between the MSA marbling
standard are judged to tenths for grading, creating
a score range from 100 to 1 100 in increments of ten.
Fat colour is the colourof lntermuscular fatlateral to the rib eYe
muscle. lt is assessedon the chilled carcaseand scored againstthe AUS-MEAT FatColour ReferenceStandards. FatColour is assessed by comparing thelntermuscular fat colour lateral to the M' longissimus
dorsi and adjacent to the M. iliocostalis scored against
the AUS-MEAT Fat Colour reference standards.
Beef Meat Colour isthe colour assessed atthe rib eye muscle (M.
longissimus dorsi). ltis assessed on thechilled carcase andscored against theAUS-M EAT MeatColour referencestandards in that areathat displays the most

MATURTTY/OSSTFICATION (OSS)
Maturity scoring provides a scale for the assessmentof physiological age of a bovine animal. The term
refers to the cartilage turning to bone in the spinousprocesses in three sections along the backbone -sacral (tail), lumbar (loin) and thoracic (head). Theprocess starts in the sacral regton in the form of red
spots and as the process increases turns to hard,
yellow bones.
The shape and colour of the rib bones are also used
to determine scores. Maturity is measured in
increments of ten with the lowest being 100 and the
