Meat hygiene assessment 3 – an industry trial

17 January 2022
Focus area: International competitiveness
Program stream: Technical market access & markets
Project number: 2021-1091
This project funded a trial of the implementation of the new Meat Hygiene Assessment 3 system. The trial follows on from the AMPC- funded projects Visual monitoring of carcase and carton meats – a system for 21st century and Process monitoring for the Australian meat industry – a comparative industry trial, where SARDI research worked with industry and the Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment (DAWE) to design a Meat Hygiene Assessment 3 (MHA 3) guideline for product monitoring. 

Trials determined that the application of MHA 3 was less time-consuming and produced more targeted and actional data.
