Brasília, DF: EMBRAPA-DDT, 1987. v. 1. p. 683-399.c1987 aTraditional goat industry in Brazil has been based on native (Moxoto, Caninded, Repartida and Marota) and mixed types (Sem Raca Definida-SRD) for meat and skin production until recently. Imported genetics resources from the United States and England (Anglo-Nubian), France and Germany (Alpines) and India (Bhuj and Jamunapari) have contributed to the genetic improvement of the Brazilian goats. The dairy industry has improved greatly in southern parts of the country as a results of importation of the Alpine types. . Tabel 1.
