Abstract
Machine readable marks are applied to articles, particularly primal cuts of meat, preferably before removal from a carcass. They can thus be monitored during progress and data can be fed back to a central computer which may compute a value for the carcass. A preferred mark is a 3.times.3 matrix having two columns of colored dots selected from colors representing 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8; and a modifying column providing binary information indicating that 0 or 1 should be added to the values of adjacent colored dots.
