Course 3: Developing a Production Plan
R850.00
When viewed superficially, goat farming seems elementary. However, commercial Boer Goat farming (any livestock farming essentially) requires a significant level of planning, production management, projections and other aspects in order to operate as efficiently and profitably as possible. This course on Developing a Production Plan will show you what aspects need to be considered, what activities need to be applied to which group of animals how and when, in order to meet a predetermined objective.

Beskrywing
Farmers are generally reliant on natural cycles, seasons and other aspects, many of which are beyond their direct ability to manage or influence. As a result, advance planning becomes much more important than, for example in a factory, where machines can be switched on and off at will.
If we neglect to prepare our does and bucks for breeding for instance, we will in all likelihood have missed an entire breeding season. By not starting nutritional supplementation in good time, the condition score index or fertility levels of our Boer Goats may be inadequate to deliver the results we planned.
The number of activities that need to be carried out and co-ordinated in advance are myriad. Developing a production cycle that details what activity needs to be carried out on which group of animals when is therefore of the utmost importance to ensure that optimum production is obtained.
