Processed lamb is preferred mainly because it requires a reduced preparation time by end consumers, especially when compared to raw lamb in the organic lamb market. Within processed lamb, the greatest volume is seen in the leg cut as it accounts for approx. a third of the segment in the organic lamb market.
