Discussion

This study shows improved marbling and meat quality traits in crossbred lambs, suggesting high-energy diets enhance nutritional value.

Group 2 crossbreds exhibited significantly higher intramuscular fat levels compared to controls, enhancing marbling.
Notable increases in vitamin A, vitamin E, and zinc levels were observed in Group 2, indicating improved nutritional quality.
Analysis included composition, fatty acid profiles, and microbial safety, confirming all groups met safety standards.
These findings indicate that crossbreeding with Suffolk sheep enhances marbling without compromising meat quality or safety.

Kenenbay et al. (2025) studied this question.
