We collect a lot of data on production, health and other aspects of our farm including goats.  We analyze these data and they inform our practices.  Some of these inform on aspects that are not covered by the research literature.  Several of these we have worked up these data for presentations at the Indiana Small Farm Conference.  Please contact us if you would like to learn more.
