Ok, so now I'm no longer a dairy farmer, I need to be contributing something else to the farm (apart from the reams of compliance paperwork).
Quite keen on raising dairy goat kids for meat - starting off quite small and selling locally/direct online. Build myself a bit of a brand (who hasn't got a brand these days?).
Want to do the sums first but despite goat being "the next big thing", can't find much info.
First I need goats.
How much does an organic non-breeding kid from a diary goat go for? OK, I know, niche of a niche but there must be someone here milking organic goats.
Alternatively, if anyone is doing it already and thinks I'm mad, let me know now but as someone who likes a bit of goat curry, I'm quite keen to give it a shot.
