Video: What Really Drives Meat Quality in Pork? - Dr. Yan Huang
In this episode of The Swine it Podcast Show Canada, Dr. Yan Huang from University of Arkansas explores how genetics, nutrition, and stress management shape pork quality. He explains how molecular pathways influence fat deposition, muscle growth, and meat flavor while balancing production efficiency. Listen now on all major platforms!
"The most important driver of pork quality. Feed plays a very important role in the meat quality."
