| Summary: | This paper reviews many aspects of ritual and traditional slaughter methods used
to produce meat for human consumption in different countries. Undoubtedly, meat
is an important source of nutrients that are essential for human health. The
global meat market has become increasingly interested in Islamic halal and
Jewish kosher slaughter, in particular because of potential market
opportunities. The requirement for unstunned slaughter or reversible
pre-slaughter stunning makes religiously-based methods of animal slaughter
unique. This study suggests a simple framework for a halal and tayyib meat
supply chain for the Muslim community that also maintains meat quality and
wholesomeness from farm to table as a model for the religious slaughter of
animals. |
