»DARK MEAT
Metrics to watch
Even with mechanical deboning
equipment, pounds per man-hour and
yield should be the two key metrics
that drive the process. These metrics
should be closely monitored in an effort to drive behavior and can be posted
for employees to see. Everyone wants
to know if they are doing a good job.
Posting results for these operations
will change behaviors and will result
in higher yield and more pounds per
man hour.
So, regardless of the outcome the
of U.S. delegation’s visit to Russia,
you have to decide whether or not the
deboning of dark meat makes sense for
your operation. ■
