I believe that farmers watching this post would want to buy one of those goats. How can I especially get in contact with the farmer who has these animals.
I am here because I overheard some guy at the bar saying he saved money by jacking off the goat to collect the semen, I found nothing on the web about this probably because of the collection process any thoughts ?
Greetings Mr Khalil. I know this is not the platform to be voicing my concerns but i would really love your assistance with pigs. I usually sell pigs to copperwood pork and Grace Kennedy but for the past 7 months I’ve been unable to secure a slot. I really have no where else to seek assistance as these pigs are too fat for local market and they have really became a burden for me at this point.
Like the look, I have a question for you sir Khalil, a cousin of mine had a breed of goat that he had been rearing for near 20 yrs, the breed has a frame similar to a Nubian Boar cross, for years the doe line kept a full black or brown color. He doesn’t know the breed as it was given to him to rear but these goats are impressive, the does can weigh easy over 100, usually 3 kids, 4 is not unusual. Still not able to pin down the breed but trust me, impressive, only 2 solid does remain from the original line. Your thoughts?
Very Well said Khalil....... I would Yes the insurance is available....... Yes the money is there to be paid out when it is to be...... Yes... Yes... Yes... It is all there..... But But... The premium on the insurance, be it which ever it is - livestock, crops or a combination. Can single farmer afford the premium ? Is there a package for farmer's should they combined for the package? Is there package for farmers in a cluster, or should they become a cluster or an organization ? There is so many unanswered question and I believe that no well thinking farmer would refuse to get help especially after a natural disaster.
