Hi
Goat Farming
Goat is the 1st domesticated animal in the ancient age and is a Poor Man’s Cow.
Because the goat meat is lean & has low fat, it is liked by all. The demand of goat meat is increasing, even though the price is high.
They are profitable under stall fed condition.
They are Prolific. They give twins & triplets.
Capital Investment of purchase of Goats is very low. For a price of 1 cross-bred Cow, one can purchase 10 quality goats.
Goats & their kids can be sold and encashed anytime. They are like bearer blank cheques.
Goat has shorter period of pregnancy. (Short Gestation Period )
They are resistant to diseases. Since they are stall fed, the expenditure on Medication/ treatment is marginal.
Their population in the country is continuously increasing, though 60% of the goats are slaughtered every year.
Products available from Goats are MUTTON / MILK / MANURE / SKIN & LUSTROUS FINE HAIR.
Cognizable foreign exchange is available from export of live Goats/carcasses/goat meat/skin. The farmer is bringing additional fallow lands under cultivation. Cities & Villages are also expanding fast & because of this the grazing land is decreasing day by day.Therefore a necessity has arisen to continue to maintain the goats by way of Stall Fed System.
Total life of Goats = 15 years…Productive — 7 years. Pregnancy Period {Total = 150 days } +/- 2 days.
Manure available from 1 adult goat in 24 hours – 1 kg…
Mortality in percentage overall is 3% {with proper management} The vaccination & deworming schedule to be followed strictly.
Indian meat is preferred in the world.
STALL-FED GOATS can ideally fit into the intensive integrated farming system (IIFS). The small animals are the most efficient converters of farm and crop residues into excellent organic manure. Several farmers have successfully run stall-fed goat farms, and they have found that such an integrated farming venture was more productive and profitable as well.
Goats relish the stalks and residues of most of the nutritious cereals, and they do well particularly when mixed with green fodder such as grasses and subabul. Special goat-feeds can be formulated using farm-grown millets and oilcakes. As the cost of the feed and also the labor gets distributed over other farming operations, the actual cost of raising the goats becomes minimal. The rich goat manure is ideal for fertilizing fishponds and all other crops. It is also a good base material for vermi-composting.

Goat Rearing
There are nearly 102 breeds of goats in the world, of which 20 breeds are in our home country. Goats are reared mostly in this world mainly for two purposes i.e. meat & milk. In India Goat is known as ‘Poor man’s cow’ in India and is a very important component in dry land farming system. For Marginal or undulating lands unsuitable for other types of animals like cow or buffalo, goat is the best alternative. With a very low investments goat rearing can be made in to a profitable venture for small and marginal farmers by incorporating certain Management & Technical Skills.
General Information
Goats are reared mainly for milk and meat. Goat is a multi functional animal and plays a significant role in the economy and nutrition of landless, small and marginal farmers in our country. Goat rearing is an enterprise, which has been practiced by a large section of population not only rural but also in urban area. Goats can efficiently survive on available shrubs and trees in adverse harsh environment in low fertility lands where no other crop can be grown. Around the world, most of the people prefer Goat milk to cow’s milk as it is more energetic and also more people eat chevon (Goat meat) than beef.
The World Health Organization says that more than 70% of the world’s population has some allergy to cow milk. The allergic symptoms could be stomachaches, gas, skin rashes and ear infections. An allergy to goat milk is very rare. According to many historians, goats were the first animals to be domesticated and since centuries they have been utilized for their milk, meat, hair, and skins all over the world.
All information regarding goat farming + infrastructure required + capital + runnning cost for 1 year + profit + disease mangement information you can get from our project report which is 1000 Rs.
