Broiler Goats

The term broiler goats is generally used for goats managed primarily for rapid meat production, with emphasis on efficient growth and timely marketing. The production system focuses on selecting suitable animals, providing adequate nutrition, maintaining good health, and achieving desirable market weight within an appropriate production period.

Successful meat-oriented production requires good-quality breeding stock, balanced feeding, clean water, proper housing, parasite and disease management, and regular weight monitoring. Farmers should also consider local market preferences because the preferred age and size of goats can vary between markets.
