Anyone raising or interested in raising meat goats will find
good information at the
Middle Georgia Goat Producers meeting Aug. 5 in Montezuma.
Goats produce more income than more recognizable Georgia farm
products, including oats,
grapes and strawberries, according to the University of Georgia
Extension Service.
But the fledgling meat-goat industry is just getting
organized. The new MGGP group is
trying to help the business, which mainly attracts people with
small farms.
