ValCabri project aimed at improving kid meat value all along the production chain through the exploration of different levers. Work was conducted to identify the most appropriate genetics types to produce kid meat, and to optimize technical itineraries, including investigations in farms, focus groups regarding acceptability of kids fattening in farms and experimental tests. A part of the project was dedicated to the development of a kid meat proposal more appropriate to consumers needs, including new kids carcasses cuts and sensorial investigations. Finally, a project phase dealed with the economic aspects of kids fattening on farms, to propose production costs and various typical examples. All the results have been valued in different documents, available in open access on the website of the ValCabri project (https://idele.fr/valcabri/).
