“…Model specificationDEA is a mathematical model using linear programming approaches to create a nonparametric piecewise surface (or frontier) across the data, so that efficiencies can be calculated in relation to this surface (Fig.1; 30). DEA was suggested in late seventies by Charnes et al(31); they set up a model of constant returns to scale (CRS) named the CCR. The model was later adjusted by Banker et al(32) to enable the presence of variant returns to scale (…”

This study was surveyed and evaluated technical, economic and scale efficiency of broiler farms in Egypt using DEA technique. So as to accomplish the specified aim, stratified random sampling technique was utilized to gather information from 150 broiler farms. The results showed that mean technical efficiencies of broiler farms were 0.915 and 0.985 under constant returns to scale (CRS) and variable returns to scale (VRS) respectively, implying that on average the farms could reduce input utilization by 8.5% and 1.5% for production level of output to be technically efficient. Notably, 48.7% of the farms were estimated fully technical efficient under VRS-model. The mean allocative and economic efficiency of the farms were assessed as 0.941 and 0.918 respectively, with only 2% of the farms were fully allocative and economic efficient. Furthermore, the average scale efficiency was 0.929 with the majority of broiler farms (82%) were operating with increasing returns to scale. The estimated Tobit regression showed that farmer's age, education, experience, access to extension services, and level of training were the most significant variables contributing to the disparities in efficiency of broiler farms. Such results are useful for extension workers and policy makers so as to guide policies towards expanding efficiency.

“…Aunque más del 90% de los productores manifestaron que cuentan con una fuente de ingresos distinta a la cría de cabras, casi la mitad indicó que esta actividad representaba su principal fuente de ingresos, situación similar a la observada en Libres, Puebla (Serrano, 2010). La proporción de productores que complementan su ingreso con actividades realizadas al exterior de significativamente menor a la de los productores de la Comarca Lagunera y dela Mixteca Poblana, los cuales tienenen promedio 19 y 27 años dentro de la actividad respectivamente (Escareño et al 2011;Trujillo 2012).En este sentido varios estudios muestran una relación positiva entre la escolaridad, la edad y la experiencia de los productores con la eficiencia técnica de las unidades de producción caprina (Gül et al 2016).…”

Se caracterizó el sistema de producción y la cabra criolla en la sub-provincia fisiográfica Volcanes de Colima. Se aplicaron 22 cuestionarios para obtener una descripción del productor, de la unidad y del sistema de producción y se realizó una caracterización faneróptica a 371 cabrasen edad reproductiva. La información se analizó usando estadística descriptiva y análisis de Componentes Principales y de Cluster Jerárquico. Las unidades de producción se orientan a la producción de carne, cuentan con una superficie y un hato promedio de 10.90 ha y 36 cabezas respectivamente. No existe manejo reproductivo, un 95% de los productores desparasita sus animales y solo el 55% los vacuna. Un 95% de las unidades productivas solo utiliza mano de obra familiar, 32% cuenta con camino de acceso asfaltado y 77% con energía eléctrica. Los productores tienen en promedio 55 años de edad, baja escolaridad, 14 años de experiencia en la cría de ganado caprino, no cuentan con acceso a financiamiento ni a asistencia. En promedio se comercializan al año 15 cabezas por productor, con un precio promedio cercano a los $33.50 por kilogramo. En la región predominan las cabras con una capa combinada blanca y café, pelo corto y uniforme, cornamenta en forma de espiral, perfil fronto-nasal recto, orejas colgantes, mucosas negras, sin presencia de mamellas y perilla. Presentan mayoritariamente ubre de tipo globular, poco profunda, con ligamento suspensorio medio poco marcado y pezones con implantación vertical.

“…Nowadays, extensive goat breeding is replaced by intensive goat breeding. Growing goat milk and goat meat industry with the increase in production and making this product in the most economical and high quality makes it important for the manufacturer and the consumer (Gül et al, 2016). It is very important for the boys who are obtained in the production season in the intensive enterprises to be produced with the quality of the carcass composition and the profitability of the producer in the free market and the sustainability of the operation.…”

Goat meat is a great source of protein that is easily found. Although known to raise cholesterol levels and blood pressure, but goat meat also have health benefits when consumed in appropriate portions. According to data of the Turkish Statistical Institute, there are still 10.63 million goats in Turkey. Hair goats constitute approximately 98 % of goat population. 37.525 tons of red meat produced from 2.07 million slaughtering goat meat in 2017. This represents only 3.3 % of the total Turkish red meat production, which is at 1.13 million tons. The main purpose of this study is to analyses recent developments in goat meat production in Turkey and evaluation of its sustainability. Further, current consumer trends for goat meat have been discussed and alternative marketing channels and strategies for goat meat have been evaluated in this study. Statistical data have been obtained from FAOSTAT and Turkish Statistical Institute. Data obtained have been shown in the tables issued by the use of percentage and index calculations. Socio-demographic variables like education or the presence of children and geographic variables are important in determining demand for goat meat. If problems of goat breeders are solve by short-and long-term precautions in Turkey, goat farming will make important contributions at regional and national level. Firstly, goat farming in Turkey should be supported directly and indirectly in accordance with EU standards. ÖZ Keçi eti kolay bulunan önemli bir protein kaynağıdır. Kan basıncını ve kolesterolü arttırdığı sanılsa da uygun miktarda tüketildiğinde sağlık için önemli yararları da vardır. Türkiye İstatistik Kurumunun verilerine göre Türkiye'de halen 10.63 milyon baş keçi bulunmaktadır. Keçi mevcudunun yaklaşık %98'ini Kıl keçiler oluşturmaktadır. 2017 yılında kesilen 2.07 milyon baş keçiden 37.525 ton kırmızı et elde edilmiştir. Aynı yıl Türkiye toplam kırmızı et üretim miktarının (1.13 milyon ton), %3.3'ünü keçi eti oluşturmuştur. Bu çalışmanın ana amacı, Türkiye'de keçi eti üretimindeki gelişmeleri analiz etmek ve sürdürülebilirliğini değerlendirmektir. Çalışmada ayrıca, mevcut keçi eti tüketim trendleri tartışılmış, keçi eti için alternatif pazarlama kanalları ve stratejiler değerlendirilmiştir. İstatistiksel veriler Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu ve FAOSTAT'tan elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler yüzde ve indeks hesaplamaları yapılarak çizelgeler halinde sunulmuştur. Keçi eti talebinin belirlenmesinde eğitim veya çocukların varlığı gibi sosyo-demografik ile coğrafik değişkenler önemli olmaktadır. Keçi yetiştiriciliği yapan üreticilerin sorunları kısa ve uzun vadeli önlemlerle çözülürse, keçi yetiştiriciliği bölgesel ve ulusal düzeyde önemli katkılar yapabilecektir. Türkiye'deki keçi yetiştiriciliği öncelikle AB standartları uyarınca doğrudan ve dolaylı olarak desteklenmelidir.
