Abstract

The article discusses the use of goats to control the invasive plant sericea lespedeza in a pasture. According to Kansas State University (KSU) small ruminant specialist Brian Faris, goats can be put alongside the cattle in the farm to suppress the undesirable plants. He also claims that goats can add to the cash flow and profit as goat meat is the most broadly consumed meat around the world.
