Survey method was done by using purposive quota sampling in Mabar Slaugther House, Medan. The variables observed were carcass weight, percentage of carcass, and back fat thickness of male Duroc pig. The prediction of variables which correlated with their aged were measured by using regression analysis. The result indicated that there was closely relation between animal age with carcass weight, percentage of carcass, and back fat thickness of male Duroc pig (P<0.01). The correlation coefficients were 0.989; 0.891 and 0.957 respectly.
