Goat farm is 10 times more profitable than sheep farm.
Sheep gives birth to 1 kid in a year whereas goat 2-8 kids in a year(in goats Kidding depends on type of breed that you select to breed).
Maturity period of sheep is of 390 days whereas goat matures in 180- 300 days(depends on type of breed).
Goats are highly resistant against diseases as compare to sheep.So mortality of goats is less as compare to sheeps.
Goat meat has very high demand as compare to sheep meat.
Marketing of goats is very easy as compare to sheeps.
Goats requires less fodder as compare to sheeps.
The only plus point with sheeps is that,they produces wool 2-3 times in a year.But just considering the wool profit you cant go with sheeps,just think of above points regarding goats. In the end the profit obtain by selling goats is much higher than that obtain by selling wool and sheeps. With regards,
