Goat and goat farming historically originated in the Middle East (Ganji Dareh, Iran, Mesopotamia) more than 10,000 years ago (about 8000 B.C.) and then spread throughout the world, east to China and India, west to Europe, south to Africa, and later to America. 聽Although the goat was the first domesticated ruminant livestock compared to cattle or sheep, it lags behind those species in research. The goat population in the world has experienced a strong increase (from 497 million in 1986 to over 850 million in 2007) during the past few decades, while most other species (except poultry) either decreased (sheep) or did not change significantly. However, scientific investment in goat science education and research remains very low.
