Anita Barman’s Journey in Modernizing Goat Rearing

Anita Barman, a 37-year-old woman, has been rearing goats for over 20 years. But she used to rear them in the old-fashioned way. She mainly raised castrated goats and sold them for around 12 to 13 thousand rupees.

Recently, Anita had an exciting opportunity. She attended a training session on goat farming. At first, she wasn’t sure if it would be helpful since she already had so much experience. But she decided to give it a try.

During the training, Anita learned about the scientific methods of goat farming. She discovered better ways to feed her goats using locally available resources. The trainers taught her about different types of feeders that could make feeding time easier and more efficient.

One of the most important things Anita learned about was vaccinations. She now knows which vaccinations are available to protect her goats from various diseases. Learning how to identify different diseases and their symptoms was also crucial. Anita felt more confident knowing she could spot any health issues early and take action to keep her goats healthy.

After the training, Anita was filled with new ideas and excitement. She realized that by implementing these scientific methods, she could increase her goat production and earn a better income. She started making changes to her farm right away.

With newfound knowledge and confidence, Anita believes she can rear more goats and increase her income substantially. The training equipped her with the necessary skills to transition from traditional practices to modern, scientific approaches in goat rearing.
