The Philippine Council for Agriculture, Forestry and Natural Resources Research and Development(PCARRD) is one of the sectoral councils under the Department of Science and Technology (DOST).Established in 1972, PCARRD formulates policies, plans, and programs for science and technology-
based development in the agriculture, forestry, and natural resources (AFNR) sectors. It coordinates,
evaluates, and monitors the national research and development (R&D) efforts in AFNR. It also allocates
government and external funds for R&D and generates resources to support its programs.
The first DOST council to earn an ISO 9001:2000 certification for its quality management system,
PCARRD is engaged in active partnerships with international, regional, and national organizations
and funding institutions for joint R&D, human resource development and training, technical
assistance, and exchange of scientists, information, and technologies.
The Council supports the National Agriculture and Resources Research and Development Network
(NARRDN), composed of national multi- and single-commodity and regional R&D centers, cooperating
stations, and specialized agencies. As such, PCARRD has been a potent arm in catalyzing the PhilippineAFNR sectors toward self-sufficiency and global competitiveness.

Icongratulate PCARRD-DOST for coming up with this Profitability Analysis, whichis not just a publication, but more importantly, a science and technology (S&T)-based solution. PCARRD has put together the necessary information that would
make agribusiness venture more technically and financially viable.
The tested package of technology (POT) that PCARRD and its research and
development (R&D) partners have developed and included in this publication,
together with the encouraging financial projections, highlights the role of S&T in
achieving our national development goals.
I am optimistic that with the dissemination of the Profitability Analysis, which
PCARRD has prepared for a significant number of priority commodities
and products, our people will develop greater appreciation of S&T-based
entrepreneurship in agriculture and natural resources sectors.

Agribusiness is among the flourishing enterprise in the country today. However,many of our people, particularly the small and medium entrepreneurs couldnot easily engage in agribusiness due to constraints in the establishment process.
This publication, the Profitability Analysis, is a very laudable initiative by PCARRD-
DOST having put together a set of solutions addressing startup constraints.
Specifically, this publication contains key technical and financial information
necessary to start, operate, and profit from a science and technology (S&T)-based
agribusiness enterprise.
I commend PCARRD for pursuing the development of this publication. This very
important contribution will definitely help boost entrepreneurship, especially in
the rural sector; create additional income and job opportunities; and promote then
production of high quality agribusiness products.

This year, the Philippine Council for Agriculture, Forestry and Natural ResourcesResearch and Development (PCARRD) offers a new technology publication thatpromises to be fully utilizable and handy.
The Profitability Analysis (PA) arose from our yearning to address your needs as
small and micro entrepreneurs, farmers and growers. More than just a handout,
this innovative package of information provides tools to help you gain and secure
a niche in your business enterprise.
The PA series is based on our study of selected commodities. Here you will find the
technical and financial data you will need to put up an agricultural enterprise. It
presents analytical tools you can use in project planning and in predicting how
the business would operate under a set of assumptions. Thus, it ensures that your
projects are technically and economically feasible for implementation. Through
the profitability analysis and other information, we at PCARRD, hope to contribute
substantially in providing livelihood options for Filipinos, especially those in rural
communities.
Specifically, this PA contains the projected income statement and cash flow for a25-doe-level goat enterprise. Also, it contains the standard production system and
information on stocks, management and breeding practices, feeds, and nutrition.
Feel free to use the information in these pages. Contact us for any further
information you may need or better yet, for any suggestions on how we can make
this publication better. Together, we can improve the production system for goat
and seal its importance in our national economy.

Management Practices
Breeding buck Starting at weaning (3 months), separate uncastrated buck
kids from the doe kids to avoid premature breeding
Provide higher energy ration and sizeable space for exercise
Trim hooves of buck carefully
Doe and newborn kids
Clip bucks hair and wash face with soap and water as a
sanitary measure to reduce odor and control lice
Groom the buck regularly and give an occasional bath
Allow nonpregnant females to run with the buck
Record breeding dates to prevent the doe from kidding
unexpectedly Separate expectant females from the rest of the herd about
1 week prior to delivery. Keep these animals in a separate
paddock/pen for closer observation
With the signs of approaching kidding, place the doe in a
bedded dry stall (1 m x 1.5 m)
Check the doe at half-hour interval and give her every
chance to kid without assistance As soon as the kid is born, wipe the body to dry immediately.
Remove any mucus that may be clogging the nose to enable
it to breathe freely. Tie a string around the umbilical cord
23 cm from the base of the navel. Cut the cord after the
knot and dip the navel in tincture of iodine. Place the kid in
a specially prepared kidding box and keep it out of draft. If
possible, place it under sunshine to dry off and strengthen
the kid After kidding is over and the stall has been cleaned, offer
water to the doe. After a while, offer quality forage and
concentrate
Kids Ensure that the kid receives the first milk or colostrum
If for any reason the kid cannot take colostrum, give the kid
a liberal dose (from a teaspoonful to a tablespoonful) of any
vegetable oil or a little milk with fresh egg white Allow the kid to run with the doe for 35 days

Guard against wet bedding in kids pen. Change beddings of
kids two or three times daily
Protect kids from cold temperature by installing curtain
sacks along side the housing or place brooder boxes inside
the shed
Remove the horn buds when the kid is about 3 weeks old
using hot-iron cautery
Castrate 24-week-old buck kids not intended for breeding
Allow the kids to run with their mothers in a clean pasture or
freshly bedded pen after castration. Avoid exciting them in
any way
Weaner/Grower Separate buck weanlings from the breeding herd to preventdoe weanlings from being bred too young
Allocate a separate paddock for weanlings or growers
Excess number of males can either be sold as breeders or
grown as slaughter animals
Observe and record the growth performance and health
condition of the animals
Practice culling whenever necessary Allow the doelings, 810 months old, to run with the
breeding herd as these are now ready for breeding
Breeding Practices
Does Breed does for the first time when these are about
8-month-old, well grown, in good health, and weigh not less
than 15 kg for native and 20 kg for crossbreeds
For maiden does, two services are recommended, althoughone service can make a doe pregnant as goats are generally
prolific. When hand mating is being practiced, breed the doe
upon observation of heat and repeat 12 hours after. Does
with estrous period lasting for 3 days may be bred on the
third day
Rebreed does that return to heat in about 21 days. Failure
of the does to conceive after breeding with proven buck fortwo cycles can be a good reason for culling them from the
herd

Bucks A buck must be at least 1 year old at first breeding
In controlled mating/hand mating, do not use a mature buck
in more than four services weekly
In unrestricted breeding, the breeding load should be one
buck for every 25 does or less depending on the size, terrain,
and vegetation of the pasture
Nutrition/Feeds
and Feeding
Nutrients Provide ample amounts of water, carbohydrates, proteins,
fats, minerals, and vitamins
Classes of feeds Roughages: cheapest sources of nutrients that includegrasses, legumes, crop by-products, and tree/shrub leaves
Concentrates: feeds low in fiber and high in energy content,
e.g., rice bran, corn bran, copra meal, cane molasses, etc.
Practical feeding Provide goats with unlimited access to fresh grass and
legume. Give 23 kg of fresh leaves of trees and shrubs such
as ipil-ipil, kakawate, flemingia, sesbania, desmanthus,
rensonii, among others Provide the animals additional sources of protein, energy,
and other nutrients, e.g., UMMB, when lower quality
roughages like native pasture grasses and mature improved
grasses and legumes are part of the diet
Supplement with concentrate at 30% of the dry matter
intake to further improve performance
When available and accessible, agro-industrial by-products
like brewers spent grains, pineapple pulps, molasses, andbanana rejects are good basal feeds for productive goats

Herd Health Management
Suggested pointers When buying or selecting your breeder stocks, examine
the animals for the presence of superficial lumps/abscessesby running your hands on the neck, abdominal, and pelvic

regions. The presence of lumps/abscesses indicates caseous
lymphadenitis and there is a high possibility that these
could infect the herd. Also check for the presence of wartlike
lesions in the mouth
Provide good housing. It should be elevated, ladderized, and
can be cleaned easily
Deworm newly bought animals with an effective dewormer
(e.g., Vermisantel, Ivermectin, Levamisole) upon arrival in the
farm and isolate these for 30 days
Deworm animals when signs (diarrhea, loss of weight,
ruffled hair coat, pot bellied, etc.) of parasitism is observed.
For pregnant does, deworming is done 34 weeks prior toexpected kidding
Provide rehydration fluids (oresol) to sick and weak animals
In regions where foot and mouth disease (FMD) is prevalent,
vaccinate the animals with FMD vaccine. Likewise, if
hemosep vaccine is available, vaccinate them as well
Check for the presence of lice. A practical way to do this is
to observe the haircoat of the animals. If haircoat is alwaysruffled and the animals are always scratching their body
using their head, horns, or against the wall, it could mean
that they have lice. Delouse the animals with an effective
insecticide (e.g., asuntol, ivomec, and neguvon powder, and
follow the instruction for application)
Marketing
Marketing Tips Know the prevailing market price Sell during periods when prices are most favorable or when
the demand is high
Organize and plan your marketing strategy to do away with
unscrupulous traders
Raise only good-quality animals (e.g., upgraded) to gain
higher profits. Upgraded animals have bigger body
conformation and grow faster than native animals; hence,turnover of capital is faster

Castrate male kids that are intended for slaughter
Dispose all marketable animals readily. There is no
advantage in keeping disposable animals; these will just add
up to your expenses
Do not market diseased and pregnant animals
Know the buyers preference in terms of weight, sex, breed,
and age
If possible, sell animals based on weight rather than on a per
head basis
