All cattle from accredited feedlots must have the necessary NFAS Delivery Documents at time of slaughter. Australian Quarantine Inspection Services (AQIS) are the responsible organisation for the administration of declaration/documents on plant.
AUS-MEAT is the organisation responsible for post-slaughter monitoring of Grain Fed product. Carcases eligible for Grain Fed Certification must comply with the following criteria for meat quality assessments.
