1). Goat Meat Production:
In many countries, billions of people
consume goat meat. This extremely high demand has got supermarkets and
abattoirs (slaughterhouse) in Nepal, and many others stocking goat meat for sale
on their shelves.
The abundance of goats in Nepal is so
high that the country hasn’t just become self-sustain of live goats and goat
products worldwide, but has also created a high business
opportunity for goat farmers in the country. Despite the extreme number of
goats and goat products produced yearly, the demand for goat meat remains
insatiable.
In Nepal, the level of goat meat
consumption is so extreme that many workers look forward to their closing
hours, so they can rush off to a bar for a goat meat with a drink. This demand
has made the goat meat business flourish in the country.
People eat goat meat at home, work,
restaurants, parties, and in many other places. When they’re asked for an
option of meat, many choose goat meat ahead of chicken meat.
The Nepalese Dwarf goat is one of the
most common goat breeds raised for household consumption in Nepal. Many homes
in the south-south and south-eastern part of the country rear them both for
their personal family consumption and for sale at local markets.
With Nepal’s population sitting at
over 30 million and over 2 million people consuming goat meat every day, goat
farming continues to be an extremely valuable business opportunity for new and
existing farmers to venture into.
2). Dairy Production:
Dairy products like yoghurt, milk,
cheese, butter, and more, can be processed from the milk gotten from dairy
goats. This locally unpopular business opportunity in goat farming generates
high revenue for many goat farmers around the world.
In many countries, goat milk is
wildly produced for household consumption, but in Nepal, hardly any home
consumes goat milk, and so the milk’s commercial value is extremely low.
Irrespective of this, goat milk is easy to digest than cow milk because of
small fat globules and is naturally homogenized. It also helps
in improving an individual’s appetite and digestive efficiency.
While dairy production from farm goat’s
milk may not be a major buzz in Nepal, in several other countries around the
world, dairy goats are used immensely to fuel their dairy needs.
