Hello Everyone,
One of my friend asked this question ,please help him
"I heard that the chennai corporation had banned slaughtering Goats in meat shop, it needs to slaughtered only through the authorized Slaughtering houses with the approval of a vet that the goat is in good health. If the corporation comes to know that the goats are slaughtered by butchers in meat shop, the goats will be seized.
When we want to sell our goats for meat purpose, it needs to be sold through slaughtering houses( as there is above rules), from there the meat shops will buy the meat and sell it to retailers (end user).
When consulted the famous slaughtering houses in chennai to sell the goat, they are ready to take the goat by considering only the meat weight. I mean they say even though the live weight is 20 Kg, they will consider only the goat weight as 10 kg and will charge for the weight in the price of Rs. 230 (10 kg x 230 Rs = 2300). Atleast if they charge this 10 kg in the rate given to end user (Rs. 500), it will be helpful for us. But they are ready to buy only at Rs. 230 that to not on live weight.
So I'm wondering at what rate you are selling goats for meat purposes??
It is not possible to sell all the goats for breeding.
The percentage to sell the goats for breeding is very low. The percentage of people starts farm is very low as there is a need of investment.
If you consider the time, fodder cultivation cost , concentrate food cost, labour salary in a goat farm for 110 goats with kids, the profit will be very less for a year even if you sell 400 goats. it will be only around 4-5 lakhs.
Also, when tried to sell the goats to the meat shops where they cut (slaughter) the goats by their own (without the knowledge of governement) in chennai. They wants the goats that are only 8-10 Kgs in weight.
They says our customers want a tender meat if we buy the goat which is 20 Kgs (even though it has 2 teeth)it will not be tender. I saw the live goats in the many shops they are only 8- 10 kgs.
Please advise me how you manage things (exclude goat sales for breeding)."
