Shelf life models for beef and lamb
A model to predict the shelf life of vacuum packed (VP) beef and lamb has been developed and found to be useful in managing the shelf life of product in supply chains, with benefits including fewer customer complaints and claims, resulting in a financial benefit. This project seeks to extend the VP model to other forms of packaging commonly used in supply chains, such as modified atmosphere, overwrap, and vacuum skin packs, which are often applied to retail product after a period of storage under vacuum. It is expected that these models will further enhance the reputation of Australian product and reduce product loss and waste in supply chains.
