Goats are very popular among Filipinos because they require low initial capital investment, fit the smallhold farm conditions, and multiply fast. Culturally, goats are integral to every special occasion such as birthdays, baptisms, weddings, and fiestas. Hence, they command a higher price compared with other meats in the market.
The optimum potential of goat as one of the main sources of milk and meat has not been fully tapped in the Philippines. The goat is popularly known as the poor man’s cow because children and old folks who can not afford cow’s milk prefer drinking goat’s milk. Aside from being cheap, goat’s milk is more digestible compared to cow’s milk.

Hi, i have a land in aurora (baler),8 hec. but my problem is that it has no electricity in that area it is about 2 km from the barrio. Its a flat with mountainous area. Do you think goat farming in aurora in good. Actually I want to pioneer goat farming there.Please advice.
@Rolly, yup, as long as the pasture land is full of grass and free from predators and thieves. native goats are very low maintenance, you just need 1 person to check them from time to time.
Wow Ideal para sa goat farm yan malayo sa barrio. Kung electricity problema mo mag invest ka na rin sa solar or wind generator. Malapit ka na rin sa CLSU para sa resources regarding goat raising or kay Farmer Jones sa Cabanatuan.

Maybe its because they have no proper information about goat raising.. So, when I get home on December,ako na mismo ang mag aalaga at magpaparami.Thank you that i found this site dahil It gives mo more knowledge and informaion on how to raise a goats.. Interesting.
