Goats have become an integral part of almost every household, serving as a vital source of subsidiary income, often tended to by women for generations. Despite their significance, the local non-descript goats raised primarily for meat exhibit minimal weight gain, averaging between 6 to 8 kilograms annually. Milk production from these local goats for human consumption is nearly non-existent, as milking is seldom practiced. In response to these limitations, a transformative approach has been adopted to enhance both meat and milk production in goats. High-yielding bucks of beetal breed were introduced for crossbreeding with local female goats, yielding remarkable results. The offspring of this crossbreeding, referred to as F1 crossbred kids, exhibited extraordinary potential. Born weighing around 1.5 to 2 kilograms, they undergo rapid growth, reaching an impressive 20 to 30 kilograms within a year. Lactating does from this crossbreed produce approximately 0.5 to 1 liter of milk. This approach boosts meat and milk yields and propels economic empowerment within local communities. The introduction of high-yielding breeds like Beetal, Sirohi, and Jamunapari is a significant stride toward enhanced sustainability and prosperity. The success of these endeavors accentuated the potential of integrated agricultural farming strategies to uplift lives and economies. 7.
