I've pulled together the resources I've used and knowledge I've gained into this book,
so you don't have to do the work I did.

When I started raising meat goats nearly 10 years ago,  I knew the demand was there. But, soon I discovered the lack of resources related to goats for production practices, marketing approaches, and even goat meat itself.

There's simply, not a lot of information out there from university research to industry emphasis on goat specific products. In many states there aren't even producer meat goat associations, let alone a national organization. 

Are you raising meat goats,
but not familiar with the meat?
That's ok. You're not alone.
It's not that uncommon. 

Meat goats are one of the few species of livestock in the U.S. that doesn’t have a federal marketing order, which means there hasn’t been any large-scale effort to build the industry or emphasis put on research and promotion with goat meat on how it’s graded, cooked, and consumed. Yet, it’s one of the fastest growing proteins in demand.
 
Since I’ve been selling goat meat direct to our customers, I have learned a lot about the protein and continue to follow trends, research and other information related to goat meat. 

No research and promotion efforts
