butchery; meat processing; dressing
Refers to the industrial or skilled process of slaughtering livestock and cutting carcasses into meat cuts. Often used in agricultural, veterinary, and food-processing contexts.
I'm attending a vocational school to learn meat processing techniques.
Cattle butchery is carried out daily at this plant.
屠殺 focuses on the act of slaughtering animals, while 食肉解体 covers the broader process of butchering and preparing meat for consumption.
精肉 refers to dressed meat or the retail cutting and selling of meat, whereas 食肉解体 emphasizes the industrial breakdown of the whole carcass.
Compound of 食肉 (shokuniku, 'meat for consumption') and 解体 (kaitai, 'dismantling, dissection'). The term is technical and primarily used in food-processing and agricultural contexts.
