WellCome to Our Farm

Himalayan Goat Farm & Breeding

Himalayan Goat Farm & Breeding is a advanced and technically operated goat farm in Bungkot, Gorkha, Nepal offering the pure and different verity of breed and healthy goat for meat. You’ll know what you are getting when you choose it from our farm.
Our passions are nature and our animals. With decades of experience, our entire team is very well-educated in animal husbandry and care. All of our animals are nature-fed, and we don’t use any antibiotics or hormones. Raised with care and love, our animals are treated as part of the family, free to roam over our property, in a natural and humane environment.
Years ago, we led very busy and hectic lives. It was time for a change to our lifestyle. Spiritually guided to raise goats, we have been in business for almost 10 years and went from a busy life to an even busier one. We truly believe the pasture we provide and the surrounding trees and shade are helpful to our animals. We want to make sure our customers know where their food comes from, and that it’s lovingly cared for before making it to their table.

Khari Goat

khari goat grazing in farm

IOrigin and distribution: Khari (Capra hircus) goats are the principal goat breed of Nepal and are found across the hills and inner valleys in the country. They are quite widespread and can be found in the mid hills and immediate south of high mountains. They represent 56 % of the total goat population. They are prolific and good for meat production. They are hardy and well adapted to local environments, and occur in 6 different colour types namely, Seti (White), Kali (Black), Khairi (Brown), Ghorli (Brown mixed with other colours), Singari (Black with white markings) and Dhobini (White with black markings) (Oli, 1987; Neopane, 1997).

Phenotypic measurements: These goats have a prolificacy of 1.6 kids and a kidding interval of 283 days (Neopane, 2000). They have a relatively small body size that may vary widely in body weight from 20 to 40 kg. The wide variation within Khari goats tends to support the existence of several types. They have been characterized at phenotypic and chromosomal level. Measures of phenotypic characteristics are presented in Table 1.

Adult weight (kg)	Female:24.1±0.34; Male:28-40

Kuwar (2000) working with Khari/Hill goats across the hills from east to west of the country reported three distinct types with respect to genetic distance. The goats of the eastern region are smaller in size and the goats from mid western region are bigger in size (Table 2).

Cluster A: Goats from mid-west (Salyan and Surkhet); Cluster B: Goats from west (Lumle and Bandipur); Cluster C; Goats from east (Sindhuli and Pahkribas)

A protein analysis indicated that haemoglobin was polymorphic in Hill goats. Two genotypes of haemoglobin, Hb^AA and Hb^AB were found in the sampled population. The gene frequency of Hb^A was higher than Hb^B, which was more in the goats sampled from east Nepal. Four genotypes of transferrin, Tf^AA, Tf^AB, Tf^BB and Tf^AC were found in the Hill goats with decreasing trend of genotypes frequencies. The gene frequency of Tf^A was the highest followed by Tf^B and Tf^C. The gene frequencies of Tf^B and Tf^C were higher in the goats of east Nepal than west Nepal. Polymorphism of these two principal blood protein including differences in gene frequencies between the populations of Hill goats found in different locations indicated the genetic variation in Hill goats (Kuwar et al., 2001)

Production performances: Khari goats are a promising breed due to their high prolificacy and low kidding interval. A useful measure of reproductive rate is the number of kids born per doe per year. This can be calculated as litter size divided by kidding interval (expressed in years) as per Oli and Gatenby (1990). Taking the means of the values presented in Table 3, the calculated value is 2.1 kids born per doe per year. The figure indicates that the Khari goats have a good reproductive rate. However, the Khari/Hill goats have a low finishing weight. The average live weight at 48 weeks is 12.6 kg. This would produce only 7.8 kg dressed meat (calculated from the basis of 62% dressing percentage as per Aryal and Neopane, 1996).

खरी बाख्रा

खरी, औले, तराई र सिन्हाल नेपालका रैथाने बाख्रा हुन्। यीमध्ये पनि खरीमा बढी व्यावसायिक सम्भावना रहेको विशेषज्ञहरूको भनाइ छ। तर, अहिलेको व्यावसायिक बाख्रापालनमा रैथाने हैन, जमुनापारि, बारबारी, सानन्, विटल, सिरोही, बोचर जस्ता आयातीत नश्ललाई लोकप्रिय बनाइँदैछ। विदेशी बाख्रा लाभदायक छैनन् भन्ने होइन, यीभन्दा रैथाने कम छैनन् र खसी–बाख्राकै लागि नेपाली नगद बाहिर पठाउनुपर्दैन भन्ने हो।

नेपालमा अहिले वार्षिक पाँच लाख खसी–बोका आयात भइरहेको सरकारी तथ्यांक छ। सरकारी निकायको जानकारीमा नपर्ने गरी खुला सीमाबाट त्योभन्दा बढी खसी–बोका भित्रिरहेका छन्। वार्षिक १० लाख खसी–बोका भित्रिरहेको मानेर गोटाको रु.१० हजारले हिसाब गर्दा वार्षिक रु.१० अर्ब बाहिरिइरहेको देखिन्छ, जुन कृषिप्रधान मुलुकको लागि सुहाउँदो कुरा होइन।

खरी बाख्रा समुद्र सतहबाट ७०० देखि ७००० फीटसम्मको नेपाली भूभागको रैथाने प्रजाति हो जुन केहीअघिसम्म धेरै पालिने बाख्रामा पर्थ्यो। खरी बाख्राको विशेषता सजिलै बिर्सन सकिने खालको पनि छैन। खरीका विभिन्न सात रंगमध्ये कालो र खैरोलाई बढी तिक्खर–तेजिलो मानिन्छ। मासु पर्ने कुरामा पनि खरी अरू प्रजातिभन्दा पछाडि छैन। केन्द्रीय भेडाबाख्रा प्रवर्द्धन कार्यालय (हरिहरभवन पुल्चोक) का वरिष्ठ अधिकृत कृष्णप्रसाद रिजालका अनुसार, बडो स्वादले दाना–घाँस खाने खरी बाख्रा १८ महीनामा ४०–४५ किलोको हुन्छ।

खरी बाख्रा १६ महीनापछि हरेक दुई वर्षमा तीन पटक बियाउँछ। हरेक बेतमा कम्तीमा दुइटा पाठापाठी जन्माउँछ। अरू जातको बाख्रामा नपाइने खरीको विशेषता के पनि हो भने पाठापाठी हुर्काउन यसको माउ बढी दत्तचित्त हुन्छे। रैथाने भएकोले हत्तपत्त रोग नलाग्ने खरीलाई बँधुवा बनाउँदा पनि राम्रो नतीजा आउँछ। भीर–पहरा जहाँ पनि चर्न सक्ने खरी बाख्रालाई झ्रीको रुझ्ाइले आयातीत प्रजातिलाई जस्तो असर पार्दैन र दाना–घाँसमा पनि धेरै सन्तुलन मिलाइरहनुपर्दैन।

नेपाली किसानलाई खरी बाख्रा पाल्न प्रोत्साहित गर्नुपर्ने खाँचो त छँदैछ, त्यसमाथि व्यावसायिकताका लागि वंशानुगत सुधार अत्यावश्यक भइसकेको छ। मिसमास चरन र सबै जातका बाख्रा–बोकालाई एउटै खोरमा राख्ने चलनबाट खरी प्रजाति नासिंदैछ। निर्यातलाई समेत लक्ष्य बनाउँदै नश्ल सुधार गरेर व्यावसायिक पालनलाई प्रोत्साहन गर्ने हो भने खरी बाख्राले नेपालको आवश्यकता पूरा गरेर विदेशमा समेत परिचय बनाउनेछ।

खरीलाई विदेशमा चिनाउने हो भने यसको रोग प्रतिरोधात्मक र आफैं पाठापाठी हुर्काउने क्षमताका कारण पनि बढी लोकप्रिय हुन सक्छ। नेपाली चिजलाई 'प्याटेन्ट राइट' सहित अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय बजारमा पुर्‍याउने कुरा नेपाली परिचय र समृद्धिसँग गाँसिएको विषय पनि हुँदै हो। नेपालमा अत्यधिक पाल्न थालिएको जमुनापारि भारतीय र बोचर अफ्रिकन भनेर चिनिन्छ। सम्बन्धित मुलुकले राम्रो प्रवर्द्धन गरेकैले यी प्रजाति विश्वभर फैलिएका हुन्। खरी पनि तिनीहरूभन्दा कम छैन भने हामीले नेपालसँग मिल्दोजुल्दो पहाडी भूभाग भएका भारत, अमेरिका, अष्ट्रेलिया, अफ्रिका लगायतका मुलुकमा पुर्‍याउने सोच किन नराख्ने?

Khari Goat

Khari bakhra in himalayan goat breeding , bungkot, gorkha , nepal

The Khari goat makes up just over 50% of the total population of goats in Nepal. The valleys and hills of the interior of the country are located. They move through different areas.The Khari goat texture is small in comparison to what it weighs, in the females of this species the weight is about 24 Kg. And in the males, it varies of 28 to 40 Kg. They arrive to measure between 63 to 65 cm of length.The Khari goat is a strong breed and have the characteristic that they easily adapt to the environment that surrounds them.

They can get to reproduce when being the age of 16 months. It has a high reproduction rate. The interval between one pregnancy and another is 285 days. The period in which the goats become pregnant is 145 days.

Most pregnancies and deliveries of this breed are multiple.

This breed is born in different colors.

White with Black spots
Brown
Brown with other colors
Black with White
Black
White spots.

Both the female and the male have horns, which are inclined and backward, and can measure between 12 and 15cm.

The ears of this species are between 16 and 17 cm. and has fallen. They have a short tail and raised upwards, which can measure between 12 and 15 cm.

The Khari goat feeds on the little food. They get in the different places where it lives, and when it is winter season it has to compete with the cattle and buffaloes for food.

However, the goats are resistant and walk great distances to find their food. They adapt to eat different types of food, including herbs, leaves, plants, wood, shrubs, and their diet is added water.The Khari Goat is used for the production of their meat, and because they are highly reproductive, which makes them accessible to farmers, as they would produce a certain amount of kilograms of meat a year.The Khari Goat come to withstand different types of climates, from the warm to the cold climates.

They can be in mountains with different altitudes, from 300 to 1500 m.a.s.l

This breed is found in different areas of the country, and according to where they have different physical characteristics.

In a study carried out in the year 2000, the Khari goat was observed and it was concluded that the middle east goats of this breed were larger than eastern goats. On the other hand, occupied the second place since they were of An average size between the east and midwestern goats. And the smaller measures turned out to be the eastern ones.

In that same study, it was found that the differences in size between goats of the same breed were due to the diversity of the population in the development, which arose from 2 main proteins in the blood, including differences in genes.

नेपालमा बाख्रा पालनको भबिस्य

himaalayan goat farm nepal bungkot gorkha

नेपालका ग्रामीण क्षेत्रमा पारिवारिक आयआर्जनको प्रमुख स्रोतको रूपमा पशुपालनलाई मानिन्छ । पशुपालन व्यवसायले देशको अर्थतन्त्रमा पनि महत्वपूर्ण स्थान (२८ प्रतिशत ) ओगटेको छ । नेपालमा करिब २८ लाख कृषक परिवारले खसीबाख्रा (सरदर ३-.२ वटा ) पाल्ने गरेकाछन् . नेपालमा मुख्यतः मासुको स्रोतहरूमा भैंसी, बाख्रा, भेडा, सुँगुर, कुखुरा आदि पर्दछन् । मासुजन्य पदार्थको उत्पादन केही कम तथा अप्राप्यभएकोले मासुजन्य पदार्थ मँहगो पनि छन । धेरै जसो नेपाली परिवारहरू माशांहारी छन् । धार्मिक तथा जातीय आधारमा राँगा, सुँगुर, कुखुराको मासु केही समुदाय विशेषले त्यति रूचाएको पाइन्न तर मांसाहार गर्नेहरू मध्ये खसीको मासु सबै धर्म, जात, समुदायका मानिसहरूले रूचाएर खाने गरेकाछन् । कतिपय समुदायमा सांस्कृतिक तथा धार्मिक अनुष्ठान सम्पन्न गर्न बलीका लागि पशु र भोजका लागि मासु नभई हुन्न ।
नेपालमा चाहिने मासुको माग पुरा गर्न ठूलो परिणाममा जीवित पशुहरू विशेषतः भारत र तिव्वतबाट आयात गरिन्छ । एक अध्ययन अनुसार वार्षिक मासु कारोबार मा २० प्रतिशत भन्दा बढी खसीको मासुले ओगटेको छ । हरेक बर्ष नेपालमा रु १ अर्ब बराबरको मासु आयात गर्ने गरिन्छ। खसीको माग पूरा गर्न भारतबाट वर्षेनी करिब ५ लाख खसीहरू र तिब्वतबाट १ लाख भेडा भित्राइन्छन् हालै को अध्ययनबाट नेपालमा वर्षेनी करिब ६ लाख खसीको अभाव रहेको देखिन्छ र यो सङ्ख्या वर्षेनी बढदै जाने क्रम मा छ । यसरी आफ्नै देशमा व्यावसायिक बाख्रापालनको विकास गरेर आयात प्रतिस्थापन र रोजगारी सृजना गर्ने प्रशस्त अबसर उपलब्ध छन् ।त्यसकारण नेपाल मा बाख्रा पालन को राम्रो भबिस्य रहेको र बजार मा माग बढ्दो रहेको हुनाले यदी याहा हरुले पनि बाख्रा पालन ब्याबसाय सुरु गर्ने बिचार गर्नु भएको छ भने निर्धक्क भएर सुरु गर्दा हुन्छ ।

Why Goat Farming?

Nepali economy is growing day by day and the demand for food is increasing exponentially. Goat meat that used to be a luxury for most of the population is becoming affordable to a larger number of people due to economic growth. This has caused an increased in demand for mutton in Nepal and not enough supply to meet the demand. This demand cannot be met by traditional method of small scale backyard goat rearing in villages. As the demand far exceeds supply, goat meat prices have been increasing steadily. This increased price has created a need and opportunity for a large scale organized and scientific method of goat rearing in controlled conditions (Stall-Fed method). Improvement in the quality of the breeds is a critical factor for commercial success.
All the above factors have created a tremendous opportunity for entrepreneurs to take a lead and be pioneers in goat breeding business. There is huge potential for commercial success for those that follow advanced farming methods.In short,The advantages of Goat Farming Business compared to other Agro related Business were.
1.Confirmed ever increasing Market price.This is the only agri business in which the producers fix the price for their products.
2.Very low electicity dependency.
3.Low labour requirement.
4. High job satisfaction.
The breed options available in Nepal are Boer, Khari, Jamnapari Sirohi, Beetal, and other indian breeds like Sojat, Ajmeri, Osmanabadi (Usmanabadi), Jakhrana, Kohilawadi, Barbari, Bengal Black, Surti and many more.
