Basics and Benefits
Goat farming is a sustainable livestock venture. Goats are hardy animals that can thrive in diverse environments, making them suitable for various climates and terrains. Their ability to utilize different types of vegetation makes them cost-effective to feed. Additionally, goats have a short gestation period and high reproductive rates, allowing for quick herd growth. Goats are also known for their friendly and sociable nature, making them enjoyable to work with on a daily basis.
