Descriptif
This book covers more than 40 indigenous goat breeds and several ecotypes around the globe
and describes genotypic and phenotype traits related to species adaptation to harsh
environments and climate change. It also addresses sustainable global farming of local goat
breeds in different production systems and agro-ecosystems. Discussing three main global
regions : Asia, Africa, and Europe, it particularly focuses on adverse environments such as
mountain, semiarid and arid regions. The topic of this highly readable book includes the
disciplines of animal physiology, breeding, sustainable agriculture, biodiversity and veterinary
science, and as such it provides valuable information for academics, practitioners, and general
readers with an interest in those fields.
