Goat is mainly reared for the milk and meat purpose. The quality and quantity of milk and meat are dependent on digestive system. The goat is ruminant animal and the Rumen has special role in the digestive system. For the present study, fresh ruminant stomach of six healthy adult Surti goats were procured from thelocal abattoirs of Anand. After separating the rumen, different biometrical studies had performed. The mean ± SE value of weight of rumen was 704.92±26.60 gm. The mean±SE values of longitudinal circumference of dorsal sac, longitudinal circumference of ventral sac and transverse circumference were 44.87±01.43 cm, 50.42±01.65 cm and 54.95±1.68 cm, respectively. The mean ± SE values of papillae counted per cm² area of dorsal sac, ventral sac,dorsal blind sac and ventral blind sac were 69.67±04.63, 100.67±02.49, 81.50±06.39 and 88.33±05.89, respectively. Numbers of papillae were more in ventral sac than the dorsal sac and both the blind sacs.
