Get educated and experienced before buying goats

The meat goat industry has all the ‘bones’ in place, a solid foundation with a registration process to improve Boer and Kiko goat genetics. The registration process is thorough, laying the groundwork for identifying goat genetics that provide superior performance. Industry participants see the value of registration as proof positive of superior traits of their meat goats. This solid foundation is the way to grow an industry. 

Small Farm Canada explores goats and their potential on Canadian small farms and homesteads in the May-June 2023 issue of Small Farm Canada magazine.
