Trends in Dairy Goats

Dairy Goat Journal, Scottsdale, AZ

ABSTRACT

Gain in importance of the dairy goat industry of the United States from 1960 to 1978 is evidenced by increases in membership of goat associations (482 to 10,680), official shows (72 to 653), and herds on official test (none to 1611). Number of registered dairy goats increased from 3,611 in 1955 to 32,459 in 1976. There also is evidence of increased research and development by universities and private industry. Continued efforts are required to assure maximum efficient use of the dairy goat as a contributor to the world food supply.
