Synopsis

Overview of Angora Goats.

A Brief Synopsis of Angora Goats.

Overview

Angora goats are a rare breed that originated in the Turkish area of Ankara and are well known for their opulent mohair. Since they were tamed for their valuable fiber more than 2,000 years ago, they have been significant historically.

Origin and History.

First raised in Turkey's hilly regions, ankara goats flourished due to their environmental adaptation. Through historic trade routes, they made their way throughout Europe and, in the 19th century, to North America. Different types have been produced by selective breeding, which has improved their fiber quality even further.

Relevance to the Farming Industry

The main agricultural value of Angora goats comes from their production of mohair, a highly sought after material with a sizable worldwide market due to its shine and durability. They also help with land management and biodiversity by grazing on underbrush, which is a sustainable farming practice.
