To start a successful goat farm, one must write a business plan, conduct a feasibility study, register the business, purchase land and farm structures, and buy an initial stock of goats. Goats can be profitable to raise for their meat, milk, fiber, leather and other products. Different breeds are suited to different products - for example, Spanish goats for meat and milk and Cashmere goats for wool. Maintaining herd health requires vaccination, deworming, clean housing and grazing areas, and treatment by a veterinarian of any diseases that may occur. The products can be marketed through various channels like meat stores, restaurants, grocery stores and hotels.
