Introduction
• Goats are important elements on the pathway out of poverty for people in Central Luzon;
• Important for the poorest livestock keepers and for the landless who could start to raise livestock;
• With the presence of SRC, CLSU, TCA, SUCs, DA-RFU 3, OPVets, LGUs, strong support to farmers were given on integrated goat management (FLS-IGM);
• Linkage with PCARRD, BAI, LDC and other gov’t agencies were tapped.

Why Raise Goats?
Why Raise Goats? Small initial investment;
Can integrate with crop-based farming system;
Provides meat, milk and skin for processing into high-value products;
Short period of getting the ROI;
Goat manure is used as fertilizer;
They thrive in marginal vegetations; fodder in rainy days;
Wives and children can handle goats; they docile.
Why Raise Goats?cont..Have inherent advantages over other ruminants
Mature earlier; higher fertility (8 months);
Capable of multiple births; have shorter gestation period
Can be milked for 5 months
First kid crop-less than a year
Popular for kilawen, papaitan, caldereta
COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE
Increasing demand for goat and sheep
meat
Prospects and Opportunities:- Demand for meat, milk and products are
increasing but supply is low.
- Price is increasing every year
- Chevon has a high water holding capacity and is therefore very suitable in meat processing.
- Offers a good source of sustained income
- Technologies on improved goat production and processing are now being available
History of the GoatThe modern
domesticated goat is believed to be the first livestock domesticated by man about 10,000 years ago.
It descended from the Bezoar goat Capra aegagrus from South West Asia.
The Goat Breeds Over the years, goats were bred according to
the type or product they are about to produce:
- Meat (Chevon)- Dairy- Cashmere/ Leather- Miscellaneous Breeds
Some Exotic Breeds
Angora Goats -bred for their fine cashmere that is processed into various kinds of apparel-can also be made as pets.
Pygmy Goats- miniature goats most suitable as pets- only stands 16-23 inches at the whithers.
Playing Dead?
Fainting Goats- More or less the size of a native goat.
- Meat breed
Goat Breeds Commonly Found in the Philippines

SELECTION AND CULLING• Selection – choosing animals with desirable
traits that are fit for production
• Culling –removing animals that are below average in production, unsound or undesirable
Traits to consider for selection:growth rate, milk yield, prolificacy, body size, resistance to disease, adaptability to environment, and production conditions

Basic Requirements
HOUSING SYSTEM OF GOATS
FLS-IGM, Pangasinan
SRC, CLSU
SRC, CLSU
Recommended Floor Space for Goats:
Doe - 1.5 sq. m
Buck - 2 sq. m
Young Stocks - 1 sq. m
1. Options on goat pen designs
-The provision of housing lowers markedly worm load, thus decreasing mortality of goats by 80-85%. Space requirement of 1 m/hd reduces death and for security reasons
2. Options on feed resource establishment and management
Optimizes use of local available feeds while meeting the nutritional requirements of the animals. Napier, ipil-ipil, kakawate, rensonii, flemingia, indigofera, acacia pods, hulls, camote vines, are most commonly available.
Almost all farm by-products are used as goat feeds. It ensures food production the whole year round.

3. Alternatives to traditional health management - Deworm kids at 3 months old,
repeat after 3 months;
- Deworm older goats before onset of rainy season, and repeat monthly until Sept. Pregnant does-2 wks before giving birth.
- Deworming and the use of leaves with anthelminthic qualities like kakawate, atis, pineapple reduces egg per gram of feces by 90%.
3. Alternatives to traditional production management
- Ipil-ipil leaf based for concentrate supplements preparations, with stall feeding of grasses and tree leaves and complete confinement during the rainy season and semi confinement during the dry season, improved production by 60%.
- complete confinement
Ipil-ipil

Semi-confinement method
4. Alternatives to traditional grazing management
- Start grazing goats at 9 am, when the dews on the leaves of grasses are already dry to avoid eating of larvae of parasites contaminating the leaves of grasses. The practice RRG for larger lands, and transfer to another paddocks within 3 days reduce considerably worm loads among goats.

5. Alternatives to traditional breeding management
- Avoidance of breeding during the months of February and March of each year ;

Summary• Before entering into a goat enterprise, capacity building is a must;
• Train your caretaker, the life of your farm.
• Before buying goats, construct a goat house and plant grasses and legumes;
• Kailangan may sipag at tiyaga!• Magne”goat”syo tayo!
Pasture area• Conclusion:
• There is money in goat production;
• With skills and diligence, extensionists, veterinarians could influence farmers to venture on goat-based enterprises;
• Demand is high, but supply is low.
