Advantages of Sojat Goat Farming
Sojat goats are primarily raised for meat production due to their fast growth rate and excellent body weight gain. Their meat is tender, nutritious, and in high demand in domestic and export markets.
Compared to many other Indian breeds, Sojat goats grow rapidly, making them commercially viable for farmers looking for quick returns on investment.
Being a native of Rajasthan, the Sojat goat can withstand extreme heat and survive in arid conditions with minimal resources. This makes it ideal for regions with limited grazing land and water availability.
Sojat goats have a good reproductive performance, with many females giving birth to twins or even triplets, ensuring a steady increase in flock size.
Sojat goats are in high demand during Eid al-Adha (Bakri Eid), where they are sold at premium prices due to their size and appearance. Many farmers engage in seasonal rearing to cater to this lucrative market.
