Conteúdo: | Abstract: Goat production in the semiarid tropics of Northeast Brazil, as well as in other semiarid developing regions, is characterized by its extensive management and low offtake. The caracterization of the semiarid rangeland of the area and a socioeconomic profile of the goats producers are presented in chapters 1 and 2. In this champter we give a general overview of land organization in Northeast Brazil, including the major crops and animal species utilized, and of the important of goats within this integrated production system. Finally we describe the actual status of goat keeping in this region, and where possible, we compare some results, obtained under experimental conditions with data from producers' herds.
