Central Luzon ranks 5th
in goat production
High potential to increase its rank and
contribution to goat production
presence of supply-inducing factors
• increasing number of raisers
• availability of feed resources
• presence of R & D institutions working on
goat as source of technologies and quality
breeders
strategic venue for sustainable goat farming
due to proximity to Metro Manila
Rationale
Geographic distribution of
goat by inventory
Central Luzon (Region III)
ranks 5 in goat inventory

Adoption of technological options
Differential adoption of technologies by those trained
and non-trained
more trained raisers adopted the different
technologies
mean number of technologies adopted was 4 for
trained and 3 for non-trained
technologies with resource base available in the
villages have higher adoption; use of
MPTS, housing, upgrading, others
regression analysis proved that training along
with other factors (ownership of pasture, initial
capital investment, initial inventory, and
household size) is important in increasing level of
adoption
Adoption of technological options
Analysis of adoption pathways
short time lag from time of hearing, trying and adopting
the technologies
the proportion of raisers who have heard, tried and
adopted some technologies are relatively the same
low proportion of raisers who discontinued adopting
some technologies

Effects of Technology Adoption
3. Increased productivity
Production of bigger animals
(15 kg vs 13 kg) at 7 months of age
4. Increased income
Higher price
(Php 1,786 vs Php 1,500 per head)
More fatteners sold due to increased inventory
(6 head vs 4 head)
Higher net cash income in 2008 of trained raisers
(Php 8,900 vs Php 5,000)
Summary,
Conclusions and
Recommendations
1. Significant amounts of public funds was
spent on goat R & D
2. R&D outputs were the technologies on
goats
3. Training, the most important technology
transfer modality
4. Trained farmers had higher technology
adoption
5. Higher productivity among trained farmers
Summary and Conclusions
Government institutions to
enhance technology adoption
Reach out more goat raisers thru trainings
and other extension modalities in
coordination with Local Government Units
(LGUs) and the Agricultural Training
Institute (ATI)
Selective dissemination of technologies
depending on clienteles resources and
needs
Recommendation
More information dissemination on
technologies with resource-base available in
the locality
Utilize further existing Farmers Information
Technology (FITs) Centers and Farmer
Scientists in technology transfer;
establishment of the same in other goat
producing areas that are least reached by R
and D institutions and LGUs
