Abstract :
the main purpose of this research is to analyze technical and economic aspects of dairy goat farming in the provinces of Izmir, Canakkale and Balikesir. Data has been collected by survey from 234 goat farms through stratified (proportional) random sampling. The activities of goat farms for the year 2013 have been analyzed under three groups according to the number of animals. First group consists of farms with 75 goats and less, second group consists of farms with 76- 150 goats while third group consists of farms with 151 goats and more. Average milk production per farm has been determined as 26251.82 kg, and average daily milk yield per animal was determined as 1.65 kg. 85.38% of the milk is marketed to dairy enterprises and integrated enterprises which process milk. Average farmer price for goat milk was calculated as 1.31 TL/kg. Average gross production value, average variable cost and average gross margin per animal were determined as 357.31 TL, 196.06 TL and 161.25 TL, respectively.
