Why the number of goats have increased?

The number of goats has increased due to their versatility as livestock, adaptability to various climates, and low maintenance requirements compared to other farm animals. They are valued for their milk, meat, and fiber, making them a popular choice among smallholder farmers. Additionally, the rising demand for goat products in both local and global markets has incentivized more people to raise goats. Furthermore, goats' ability to graze on diverse vegetation makes them an effective choice for land management and sustainable farming practices.
