INTRODUCTION

1. Project description

The goat is a multi-functional animal and plays a significant role in the economy and nutrition of landless, small and marginal farmers in the country. Goat rearing is an enterprise which has been practised by a large section of the population in rural areas. Goats are among the main meat-producing animals in India and have huge domestic demand. The benefits of commercial goat farming are many such as the production of Goat milk, meat, fibre, skin Etc. Goat Farming requires less space, fewer additional facilities & low management skills. Production costs like infrastructure, feeding and treatment are less. There is a market facility for live animals & meat in the localities. Goats can adapt themselves to almost all types of agroclimatic conditions. Goat products like meat and milk have no religious taboo & widely accepted for consumption.

At present, goat rearing under intensive and semi-intensive systems for commercial production has been gaining momentum. Several commercial goat farms have been established in different regions of the country.

2. Project Location

The Goat Farm is to be constructed at the Village- Bharkhar, Post -Mohania, Dist- Kaimur, Bihar. The given location is on the Metalled road and nearby Mohania Market where assured market round the year is available. It is easily accessible to the GT Road.

3. Housing

The houses will be semi-closed type & orientation will be East-West direction. There will be the sloppy roof for the comfort of the goats.

1. Maximum length of shed = 100 ft.
2. Width of the shed = 20 ft.
3. Central height= 10 ft., Side height= 6 ft.
4. Height of North & Southside walls= 3 ft. (50% of side height)

There will be separate houses for keeping different categories of goats such as – (dry, pregnant, lactating, sick bucks & kids). Shed premises will have sufficient plantation which protects the animals from direct wind & scorching sun during summer. At least 2 trees in each paddock will be planted.

Housing will be constructed on a raised platform (about 3 ft. height from ground level). Pakka building by establishing concrete pillars will be constructed for durability. The elevated platform will be made of wooden material/ fibre slat. Side walls will be made up of concrete walls and wire mesh. The roof will be of asbestos sheets. The average floor space per adult female is 10 sq. ft, that of an adult male is 20 square ft and that of a kid is 4 sq. ft. Floor will have at least 1 cm space between bamboo/wooden planks to allow passage.

Feeding Management:

Concrete/ brick partition with GI pipe at a distance of 30 cm would be will be constructed

Watering:

1. For adults- made of concrete/bricks. Size: 15×3×1 ft.
2. For young animals (3-6 Months): 10×2×1 ft.
3. For kids (0-3 months): Plastic tubs of 8-10 litre capacity will be used

4. Feed&Foddercultivation

Fertile land with assured irrigation facilities is available so that fodder crops can be successfully raised and abundant good quality green fodders will be made available for animal feeding throughout the year.

5. Water

Good quality fresh water for animal drinking and the cleaning, washing etc. is available from the Machine and there is also a pond near the proposed site.

6. Labour

Economic and regular supplies of labourers are available in the project area.

7. Veterinary aid

Veterinary aid facilities are available near the proposed goat farm.

8. Market potential

Most of the people of Bihar are non-vegetarians which is approximately 80% of the total population. They prefer goat meat to any other meat or chicken. In all ceremonies, people like goat meat on their menu. So, the market demand for goat meat is high. The purchasing power of the people is on the rise and there is a distinct shift in consumption patterns, Non-Veg now becoming almost an essential part of the diet. Mutton is relished by people more than chicken or pork (Consumed by a select section). The availability of Mutton is less than the demand. It requires smaller investments and is not as risky a business proposition as compared to Dairy. The sale of goat meat is never a problem for the above-mentioned reasons. India occupies the first position in terms of goat population and milk production. The demand for goat meat is increasing faster than the growth in the goat population. Goat plays a significant role in providing supplementary income and livelihood to millions of resource-poor farmers and landless labourers in rural India.

9. Export Potential

The scope for exports too is huge, however for selling goat meat abroad, one has to adhere to strict photo sanitary conditions and standards of the respective nation.
