The A-Z of keeping goats for profit

For almost a year now, I have been keeping goats. I am aware that there is a vibrant goat 'nyama choma' (roast meat) business in Kenya and that's why I have a ranch in Kiserian, Kajiado county. I do both indoors and outdoor feeding whereby at times I give them food to eat in confinement like during drought or when there are reported cases of predators in the neigbourhood and other times I allow them to graze in the open. I would like to learn more about goat keeping. [Kimani Stephen, Kajiado County]

Thank you Kimani for reading The Smart Harvest and for your timely question. Many farmers, just like you begin from a point of market information. This is nonetheless a good trigger because we encourage our farmers to go into farming with the ultimate goal of making money. But is always good to be armed with health information too, because without this you are likely to make costly assumptions and end up missing the money in the end.
