:
carcasses of other uncastrated male animals;
:
carcasses of castrated male animals;
:
carcasses of female animals that have calved;
:
carcasses of other female animals.
The carcasses shall be classified by successive assessment of:
Conformation, defined as follows:
Development of carcass profiles, in particular the essential parts (round, back, shoulder)
Conformation class | Description |
---|---|
S Superior | All profiles extremely convex; exceptional muscle development (double muscled carcass type) |
E Excellent | All profiles convex to super-convex; exceptional muscle development |
U Very good | Profiles on the whole convex, very good muscle development |
R Good | Profiles on the whole straight; good muscle development |
O Fair | Profiles straight to concave; average muscle development |
P Poor | All profiles concave to very concave; poor muscle development |

2 slight | Slight fat cover, flesh visible almost everywhere |
3 average | Flesh with the exception of the round and shoulder, almost everywhere covered with fat, slight deposits of fat in the thoracic cavity |
4 high | Flesh covered with fat, but on the round and shoulder still partly visible, some distinctive fat deposits in the thoracic cavity |
5 very high | Entire carcass covered with fat; heavy deposits in the thoracic cavity |
Member States shall be authorised to subdivide each of the classes provided for in points 1. and 2. into a maximum of three subclasses.
Carcasses and half-carcasses shall be presented:
without the head and without the feet; the head shall be separated from the carcass at the atloido-occipital joint and the feet shall be severed at the carpametacarpal or tarsometatarsal joints,
without the organs contained in the thoracic and abdominal cavities with or without the kidneys, the kidney fat and the pelvic fat,
without the sexual organs and the attached muscles and without the udder or the mammary fat.

Before identification by marking, Member States may grant authorisation to have the external fat removed from the carcasses or half-carcasses if this is justified by the fat cover.
’carcass’ shall mean the body of a slaughtered pig, bled and eviscerated, whole or divided down the mid-line.
Carcasses shall be divided into classes according to their estimated lean-meat content and classified accordingly:
a Member States may introduce, for pigs slaughtered in their territory, a separate class of 60 % or more of lean meat designated with the letter S. | |
Classes | Lean meat as percentage of carcass weight |

U | 50 or more but less than 55 |

O | 40 or more but less than 45 |
P | less than 40 |
Carcasses shall be presented without tongue, bristles, hooves, genital organs, flare fat, kidneys and diaphragm.
With regard to pigs slaughtered in their territory, the Member States may be authorised to provide for a different presentation of pig carcasses if one of the following conditions is fulfilled:
if normal commercial practice in their territory differs from the standard presentation defined in the first subparagraph,
if technical requirements warrant it,
if carcasses are dehided in a uniform manner.
Unless otherwise provided for by the Commission, classified carcasses shall be identified by marking in accordance with the Community scale.

Kidneys and kidney fat are included in the carcass.
However, Member States shall be authorised to permit different presentations when the reference presentation is not used.
