Abstract
The place of the meat in a "healthy" human nutrition and its economical aspect drives the selection towards animals producing a leaner carcass and meat with less fat content. The objective of this research is to investigate possibilities of modifying the profile and the ratio of polyunsatured/satured fatty acids in ruminants according to breed, sex and feeding, as well as in other herbivores.
