Introduction

Cultivation of pig breeding has long been carried out by Balinese people, both to fulfill the need for animal protein and religious ceremonies. The entry of several superior pigs such as Landrace pigs, Balinese people still have local pigs, even crossbred pigs, because local pigs are believed to have some advantages, such as muscle color and a better taste. Meat quality is strongly influenced by intrinsic factors and extrinsic factors (Rosenvold and Andersen, 2003; Hu et al., 2013). In meat there is also a connective tissue, fat, and meat location affecting the level of tenderness of meat (Said, 2012; Yuni et al., 2012)

Research Methods

Methodology can be explained in this section. Recommended to use a flowchart to make it easier for understand the methodSamples in the form of meat in the Loin area (back) of Landrace pigs, Balinese pigs, and Persilangan pigs (Bali Landrace pigs), and then made histological preparations. Histomorphometric examination results were analyzed by t-Test.

The results showed that the histological structure of Balinese pig muscle fibers was seen in the presence of solid connective tissue that was dominant in the perimesium region to the endomesium region and a small presence of fat cells. This picture is different from the muscle fibers of Landrace pigs and landrace cross pigs. In the muscle tissue preparation of Landrace pigs and Landrace cross pigs, a cross-section of muscle fibers and fat cells has a different size than Balinese pigs. Histomorphometri there are significant differences between the three types of pigs. This difference is due to genetic factors and maintenance management

Conclusio : it can be concluded that the quality of pork meat is lower among the other two pigs.
