Full Version: Qatar Company Invests $2 Billion In Pakistan
Good News... should eventually lead to lower prices for meat and meat products in the country 
A price of a good berberi (small eared) baby goat is Rs. 1,000 (I had bought 10 for the marriage of my sister) .. normal kids who take are of the goats charge Rs. 10/month ..
After 1 year each goat is priced at nearly 5,000 to 7,000 each .. unfortunately while being transported from interior sindh they loose nearly 4 to 6 kgs each ! .. I lost one goat in the pack of 10 due to illness and in the end had 9 goats to cut for the marriae ceremony and everyone in the city was surprised at the quality of goats.
I am sure you can mint money and the quality of Pakistani goats is quite famous in the Middle East (price of Pakistan goat is between Dhs. 600 to 900/- !).
