First with modern slaughter system and second with traditional slaughter system. Meat samples taken from both of these cutting systems, in physical quality test of meat. The comparison of these two data was tested using T Test statistic analysis (Two Independent Test). The results showed that the pH, Water Holding capacity, Cooking lose value of  loin beef  cut with modern cutting system was significantly higher (P <0.05) than the value with traditional cutting system.  The difference in slaughter management in the two slaughter systems is the cause of differences in the physical quality of the meat produced. In modern slaughterhouses the slaughtering system implements better slaughtering procedures, for example the resting of cattle before slaughtering, the method of carcassing of hanging and the carcass was aging before implements commercial carcass. While in traditional slaughterhouses, livestock slaughtered is under standard procedures such as the livestock is not rest, carcass handling are on the floor and not applied to the aging of carcass.
