The effect of different genotypes, sires and season on age at slaughtering, mass of warm carcass sides, fat thickness measured on three points (withers, back, rump) and percentage of meat in warm carcass sides of average mass of 74.17 kg using Yugoslav standard method was investigated. Results obtained show that investigated traits had no variation between pigs of different genotype (P is greater than 0.05). Sires effected variation of age at slaughtering, fat thickness (withers, back, rump, back + rump) and percentage of meat in warm carcass sides of offspring (P is less than 0.01). Slaughter season effected fat thickness measured on withers (P is less than 0.01) and age at slaughtering (P is less than 0.05). Age, fat thickness and percentage of meat depended on the mass of warm carcass sides. Evaluated heritability coefficients for investigated traits were in interval of medium to high.
