Sustainable Goat Production in the Changing Climate

Grab a practical, science-backed guide that speaks directly to farmers, extension workers, researchers and policymakers facing the new realities of livestock farming. Sustainable Goat Production in the Changing Climate by Veerasamy Sejian, M.V. Silpa, and D. Thirunavukkarasu equips you with strategies to build resilient, productive goat enterprises across tropical and subtropical regions.

This book blends the latest research with field-tested techniques — covering climate-smart breeding, nutrition under variable forage conditions, health and welfare in heat-stress environments, pasture management, and low-cost housing designs. Clear case studies from South Asia and Africa show how smallholders and commercial producers can adapt systems to erratic rainfall, rising temperatures and emerging disease risks.

You’ll find actionable guidance on improving productivity while reducing environmental impact: selection for resilient breeds, water and feed conservation practices, integrated forage systems, and biosecurity measures tailored for small ruminants. Policy insights and extension approaches help practitioners scale solutions in rural communities and peri-urban farms.

Whether you manage a backyard herd or lead extension services, this authoritative yet accessible resource turns complex science into practical steps for on-farm transformation. Regionally focused, globally relevant — it’s essential reading for anyone committed to sustainable goat farming in a changing climate.
