Letters To The Editor: Very Expensive Goats
For about $200, it was almost impossible to get 8-10 kgs of dressed goat.... i.e. $20 to $25:00 per kg. (Up to $500:00-plus for fully-grown male goats).

The Minister for Agricultur Inia Seruiratu is being briefed at Bobby’s Farm on the boar goats .
The prices of goats sold next to Nadi Market pre-Christmas were excessively over-priced.
Sellers must have tried to get rich overnight.
It all back-fired big time.

This is plain ridiculous, in my view.
I found it cheaper to buy 4kg of imported goat meat for just under $60.
To earn a decent living, be less greedy; sellers of live goats must learn to bring prices down as soon as possible.
It will be impossible to support you otherwise.
