- Central Institute for Research on Goats (CIRG), is a premier research Institute of Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), an autonomous organisation under Department of Agricultural Research and Education, Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India. This Institute was established on 12th July, 1979 with vision to develop the poor men’s cow- the goat as a source of livelihood security, poverty alleviation and employment generation for the smallholders. Our Mission is to enhance and then sustain goat productivity in respect of meat, milk and fibre through Research, Extension and HRD support. The Mandate of the Institute is to undertake basic and applied research in all disciplines of goat production and product utilization, to impart trainings, to transfer technologies and provide consultancy services for improving quantity and quality of meat, milk and fibre production from goats and to develop processing technologies of goat products.The institute is located at almost equally distance between Agra andMathura. These two cities are famous world over, for their historical and cultural heritage i.e The Taj Mahal and Birth Place of Lord Krishna, respectively. We are trying to demonstrate and implement the available improved technologies at the farmers’ doorstep. A concerted approach has been adopted by the Institute in this direction. The dedicated maililg list "goat-net@cirg.res.in" and helpline is working to address the goat farmer’s problems.
