While they were in the kitchen preparing the meal, the minister asked their son what they were having."Goat," the little boy replied."Goat?" replied the startled man of the cloth, "Are you sure about that?""Yep," said the youngster.

Reasons not to enter into sheep/goat production
• Parasite problems• Predator problems• Fencing – keeping them in• Hoof problems• Weather problems (kidding, parasites)• Lack of infrastructure (marketing, veterinary
expertise, animal health products, feed products, knowledge, research)
• Not going to get rich quick

I STILL WANT TO RAISE SHEEP/GOATS, WHAT ADVICE CAN YOU GIVE ME?
![Page 13: Small ruminant sector](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042512/55a7177b1a28ab3e798b45e3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Reasons to enter into small ruminant production
• Historically goats, the “cattle of the poor”, and sheep are reared as sources not only of milk and meat for family consumption, but also as source of liquidity.
• Sheep and goats are significant in socio-cultural activities such as funerals, dowries, festivities and holidays etc.
• Requires less land and investment compared to cattle
• Mutli-purpose animals• Efficient forage converters• Easy to handle

Increasing Inventory/EquityReproductive Efficiency
Cattle
• Start with 1 cow• Save all the females for 5
years-sell males
• 95% calf crop
• 50/50 heifer bull• At the end of 5 years:
– 5 females in the herd– 5 males sold
Sheep/goat
• Start with one doe/ewe• Save all the females for 5
years- sell males
• 150% kid/lamb crop
• 50/50 doe(ewe)/buck (ram) kids
• At the end of the 5 years:– 24 females in herd– 24 males sold
