Overview

Goats hold significant potential for future domestication due to their versatile nature and ability to sustain and thrive in a more eco-friendly manner. In contrast to cattle or buffalo farming, goat rearing necessitates less initial and ongoing capital investment. Moreover, goats exhibit a higher reproductive rate compared to cattle or buffaloes, which makes them better suited for farming on marginal lands where other livestock may not survive. This book provides a comprehensive overview of goat production, with a particular emphasis on India. It also incorporates relevant information from global sources. Goats have played a pivotal role in research and development initiatives aimed at poverty alleviation through the utilization of small ruminants. For research findings to be beneficial, they must be disseminated widely, and this book serves as a means of promoting and sharing research outcomes to benefit underprivileged and resource-constrained farmers. This book is expected to serve as a valuable resource for anyone with an interest in goats.
