Those that have been supplied with vaccines and medicines have found a greatly reduced mortality in their animals resulting in better growth and a bigger pool of animals to select from for sale or breeding. Farmers who maintained their goat herds through times of local panic about epidemics of goat pox now have the advantage of rapidly increasing prices for goats May-June 2009 as a result of many farmers selling their goats at an earlier time in response to the scare. All farmers remaining with the project have more than doubled their goat herd size in the past year and while they maintain them free of disease they will continue to produce goats for profit. Testimony to the benefits gained came from both small-holder farmers and the DARD staff when describing their experiences during the National Conference sponsored by the Project in Phan Rang Ninh Thuan in November 2008. A major focus of the project in the first year was the training of DARD officers from Ninh Thuan Binh Thuan and Lam Dong provinces in goat husbandry and management and these officers were then used to advise and teach farmers during the many workshops conducted and during on-farm visits. Both technical and senior management were included in the training programs building the capacity of all levels of participation farmers commune
