title: Unsolved problems of the goat industry.
abstract: A few of the challenges to successful goat farming have been mentioned. The veterinary practitioner is a pivotal specialist whose expertise and services could greatly improve productivity in all types of goat production, particularly because productivity appears to be limited mainly by disease. In my opinion, goat producers are, for the most part, trying to struggle on without us. This, I believe, is an unfortunate reflection of our failure to make them aware of how helpful we can be when invited to assist in making herd management decisions.
