Smith's Interest in Goats Goes Way Back: Talpa rancher Don Smith started raising meat goats in the 1940s, and his work is beginning to pay off

摘要

TALPA, TEX. — Don Smith has been an advo cate of raising meat goats since way before it was as popular as it is today. Back in the 1940s, meat goats were a sideline to Smith's ranch, but he always had an interest in developing a uniform herd of Spanish meat goats. It was that early interest and involvement that allowed Smith to be in a position to be a leader in today's meat goat boom. Today, Don Smith is one of the top and most well-known Boer breeders in the country. .
