Milk and red meat producers will now set the prices.
The government has made the decision to delegate the authority of setting goat meat and milk prices to farmers and producers rather than the government itself.
The goal of this new policy is to increase competition in the goat meat and milk market, which will benefit consumers by lowering prices.
The government thinks that granting producers and farmers more control over the prices of their goods will motivate them to increase the amount of goat milk and meat that is produced.
This is due to the fact that producers and farmers who can raise the price at which they sell their goods will be able to earn more money.
As 90% of the industry consists of impoverished cattle rearers, the government also hopes that this new policy will benefit them. It aims to provide these producers with a more equitable portion of the profits by letting them determine their own prices.
The government also admits that the cost of fish and chicken has an impact on the cost of goat milk and meat.
The government thinks it can create a more level playing field and guarantee that goat meat and milk remain affordable for consumers by allowing market forces to set the prices of these commodities.
