Abstract

The study characterizing the goat farming systems in Kasongo reveals a traditional exploitation structure marked by a strong male predominance and a population of older farmers. The key socio-economic factor determining Herd Size is Household Size (p60% of reported difficulties). In response, farmers adopt risk mitigation strategies, such as housing goats overnight in the Dwelling House.
