Abstract: The objective of this study was to determine the commercial cutting meats of 5 pure Dehong buffalos (D), 5 Dehong×Ni-li buffalos (ND) and 5 Dehong×murrah buffalos (MD) at an average age of 35.8 months on pasture system. The carcass weight, net meat weight, high quality meat of ND were higher than those of D. Especially in chunk tender, rump, topside, knuckle, outside p1at, eyeround, shank. The carcass weight, net meat weight, high quality meat of MD was higher than those of D, but the meat cuts have no difference between MD and D. And the cutting meats of MD have no any significant difference compared with ND. This experiment showed that crossbreeding improved the meat productive traits of pure Dehong buffalo.
