Economics of goat meat production
1988
Amir, P. (Winrock International Institute for Agricultural Development, Morrilton, Ark. (USA))
An institutional economics approach is applied to goat meat production issues on small farms and among landless producers. Research has demonstrated the soundness of modern goat husbandry practices; however, the economics of production needs further investigation. Present thrusts in economics and systems research are discussed. Microeconomic analysis has limited use unless backed with appropriate macro-understanding. Economic evaluation of new goat meat production technology requires introduction of an on-farm research and extension perspective in national programs. A research agenda appropriate for understanding economic factors contributing to goat production is presented.
