Goat farming in present conditions in NigeriaThere has been a lot of talk over the idea that investments in agriculture should be durable ones and ones that are thought about a long time before they are made. In such countries that are developing, like Nigeria or other African countries that we might think of, investments in agriculture are one of the best kind of financial decisions that one can make.
Even if the agricultural opportunities are, or seem to be, more and more in all countries, there is obvious proof that livestock farming such as goat farming is a very lucrative business.
But why talk precisely about goat farming when it comes to livestock farming ? There are many reasons for this, so let’s see what a few of them are:
• When we are talking about goat farming , this will require relatively low capital and it will bring us great profit.
• Most locals in Nigeria consume goat meat daily as an integral part of their usual menu, making this a very required type of meat .
• Goat skin can be used to make shoes, bags, belts and other leather-base materials
• As livestock, we have to remember that goats are easy to feed and manage , and they also require minimal supervision
• Goats have a repruductory rate that will be very good for business
• Pharmacists also make use of goat peodycts for drug production, but also can use goat milk for cosmetics of all kind.
Goat farming, a great investment for 2024
So, how can we get started in the area of goat farming? We must first remember that we have to not get in any kind of business without first researching the domain that we want to invest in. Thus, we should research what raising goats entails : from what exactly goats eat, how we should feed them , what is the mating and reproduction process and to the milk production process, leather production or manure distribution.
Within the research process we should also decide what the breed of goats that we want to actually invest in. Because there are so many breeds of goats that can be part of our goat farm, we have to take that into consideration when deciding exactly what breed would fit us. We should also think that if we want to raise two breeds of goats, the financial investment will be a lot more important and large.
Next, where do we locate our farm? Should we consider building an entire new farm or should we acquire a piece of land with a pasture that can accomodate our animals. This kind of a pasture needs to be both spacious, but also needs to offer us the opportunity to build shelters for our animals, where they can both be sheltered from atmosferic conditions, but also where they can eat.
Speaking of food, food for goats will be ideally offered by the land of the pasture, but you can also decide to buy pre-made food that is specially thought for our livestock.
Only after taking all of these aspects we can actually think about investing in a goat farm, as we need to understand all aspects of this type of farming.
However, we should not neglect the most important aspect in this equation, that being the legal aspects that are, without fault, involved in us starting a goat farm. If some states, such as Nigeria, is willing to help investors in order to start agricultural investments, there are states that impose a lot of restrictions in this domain. Should that be the case, a legal office should be without hesitance be contacted.
