French term or phrase: rendement en viande noble
"L’épaule, la longe et le gigot seront désossés pour obtenir une mesure précise du rendement en viande noble."

I have "killing out percentage" for "rendement en viande, but I don't know what to to with "noble"

choice cut yield
Explanation:
Here, it is on a more 'macro' scale than the "killing out percentage" you mention.

The idea is to get an accurate idea of the yield of the better (traditionally known as 'choice') cuts of meat, in order to better estimate the total value of the carcass, for example.

neutral  rkillings: Avoid "choice". USDA has already appropriated Prime/Choice/Select (+ Cutter/Canner/…) as grades of quality (marbling, etc.). The *carcass* is graded, not the cut. Find a different adjective.

yield of better cuts of meat


Explanation:
There are the better cuts, and then there are the less popular, not so good cuts. Nobility is out of fashion these days, on the farm as elsewhere.
