GROUP
Family work groups
Family work groups A family work group on a farm refers to a group of family members who work together to manage and operate the farm. This type of labor arrangement is common in small-scale and family-owned farms, where tasks such as planting, harvesting, feeding livestock, and maintaining equipment are shared among family members.
Characteristics of a Family Work Group in Farming: Labor Contribution – Family members, including parents, children, and sometimes extended relatives, provide the majority of the farm's labor. Decision-Making – Farm operations and management decisions are typically made within the family. Flexibility – Family members often have flexible roles and responsibilities, adapting to seasonal and daily farming needs.
4.Economic Purpose – The farm may serve as both a source of income and sustenance for the family. 5.Knowledge Transfer – Skills, techniques, and traditions are passed down through generations. 6.Low Labor Costs – Since the family provides most of the labor, external labor costs are minimized

KNISD kinds LASML SMALL RIMUSNTA RUMINANTS
Ruminant an animal that has more than one stomach and that swallows food and then brings it back up again to continue chewing it. The four compartments of a ruminant's stomach are the rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abosmasum . These compartments are designed to digest fibrous foods like hay and grass.
Reticulum Also known as the "honeycomb“ Traps large particles, like rocks or metal, or food that's too hard to digest, Often combined with the rumen to form the reticulorumen
Abosmasum Also known as the "true stomach" Similar to the stomach of a carnivore
Omasum Has a large surface area that helps with water and salt balance Only allows particles of the correct size to pass through
Rumen The largest compartment of the stomach, here you can find the processed food and the last stomach of a ruminant
Kinds of small ruminants
Sheep Sheep or domestic sheep are a domesticated, ruminant mammal typically kept as livestock.
Goat a hardy domesticated ruminant animal that has backward curving horns and (in the male) a beard. It is kept for its milk and meat and is noted for its lively and frisky behavior
Deer a hoofed grazing or browsing animal, with branched bony antlers that are shed annually and typically borne only by the male
Antelope any of various ruminant deerlike mammals (family Bovidae) chiefly of Africa and southwest Asia that have a slender lean build and usually horns directed upward and backward
Llamas any of a genus ( Lama ) of wild or domesticated, long-necked, South American ruminant mammals related to the camels but smaller and without a hump
Alpacas a long-haired domesticated South American mammal related to the llama.

Parts of goats
Leg The hind leg of the goat, known for being lean, tender, and flavorful . Used for roasting, grilling, braising, or making stews . Can be sold whole or as smaller steaks and chops .
Loin The back portion along the spine, behind the ribs. One of the most tender and premium cuts of goat. Used for grilled chops, pan-searing, or roasting . Includes loin chops , similar to T-bone steaks in beef.
Rack (Rib section) Located in the upper rib area of the goat. Contains rib chops or a full rack for roasting. Best cooked by grilling, roasting, or pan-searing .
Shoulder A tougher cut from the front legs and upper body. Contains more connective tissue , making it ideal for slow cooking, braising, or stews . Often used for ground goat meat and curries.
Breast and foreshanks Breast: Found below the ribs, contains more fat and connective tissue . Foreshank: The lower front leg , very lean and tough . Both are best for slow cooking, braising, and stews .
Flank The belly area , thin and lean. Used for minced meat, stir-frying, or stews .
Neck A flavorful but tough cut due to connective tissue. Best for slow-cooked dishes like soups, curries, and stews .
Cut Description Best Cooking Method Leg Lean, tender Roasting, grilling, stews Loin Very tender, premium cut Grilling, roasting, pan-searing Rack/Ribs Flavorful, contains rib bones Grilling, roasting Shoulder Tough, high in connective tissue Slow cooking, braising, stews Breast & Foreshank Fatty and tough Slow cooking, braising Flank Thin and lean Minced meat, stir-frying Neck Tough but flavorful Slow cooking, soups, curries
TYPES OF FEEDS
Pasture
It is very necessary to make a pasture for your goats, where they can browse freely and eat food from there. By browsing pasture, your goats will remain healthy and will get sufficient and necessary food elements like energy and protein. Natural food from pasture also helps the goats increasing the tastiness and digestibility of other foods.
Hay
Hay is another important source of goat nutrition, especially in winter seasons. Feed your goats mold free qualified grasses based hay. You can also feed your goats weedy hay because it is very cheap and contain a large amount of necessary nutrition.
Vitamins and minerals
Presence of vitamins and minerals in goat feed is a must. Because, vitamins and minerals keeps the goat productive and help them preventing various types of diseases.
Garden and kitchen scraps
Goat housing system
Open shelter
These are more suitable in regions with mild climates. They comprise fenced areas without roofs so the sheep can move around and rest under trees when it’s too hot.
A-Frame Shelter
This type of shelter has an A-frame design that provides a steep roof, offering great protection from snow and rain. It's ideal for regions with heavy rainfall or snowfall
Lean to shelter
A lean-to is a simpler, smaller structure often attached to another building (like a shed or barn). It is more compact and serves well for a smaller number of goats
Portable shelter
A portable shelter is a small, often movable structure that can be relocated easily. This type is best for rotational grazing systems.
Large ruminants
Large ruminant Large ruminants are herbivorous mammals with a specialized stomach for fermenting plant-based food before digestion. They belong to the suborder Ruminantia and include species like cattle, buffalo, and elk. These animals have a multi-chambered stomach, typically with four compartments (rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abomasum), which allows them to efficiently break down fibrous plant material through microbial fermentation. Large ruminants play a vital role in agriculture and ecosystems by converting grass and other vegetation into energy and protein sources
Kinds of large ruminant
Cattle
Cattle Cattle or cows are large, domesticated, cloven-hooved herbivores. Adult male cattle and female cattle are referred to as bulls and cows. For their meat, milk, and skins, which are used to manufacture leather, cattle are frequently reared as livestock
BUFFALO
BUFFALO The Plains Native Americans relied heavily on buffalo to maintain their way of life and ensure their survival. They have traditionally been raised for their meat
MOOSE
MOOSE It is the deer family’s biggest and heaviest living species. The majority of mature male moose have recognizable wide, hand-shaped antlers, whereas the majority of deer family members have antlers
GIRAFFE
GIRAFFE It is the world’s biggest ruminant animal and the tallest living terrestrial mammal. The giraffe’s extraordinarily long neck and skinny legs, horn-like bones on their heads, and unique coat patterns are its most unique features.
CAMEL
CAMEL They are know for their humps, which are fatty deposits that grow on the back of the animal. Since they have long been tamed, camels serve as livestock that provide milk and meat for human consumption
