1) You should be present 26 hours (of 24 hours of the day) on the farm.
2) Investment is too high, if you consider Rs. 1,000/- per animal.
3) you will require at list 1000 sq ft (2000 is ideal) shelter for those many animals, especially in rainy season.
4) arrangement for stall feeding, so many goats cannot be controlled on range.
5) minimum 15 people to work on automatic machines (Feeding, cleaning, milking, cheese making etc. In addition for marketing.
6) Breeding: you may require to maintain 30 male goats (1 per 15 females).
7) Water, disposal for wast material (droppings and urine), medical supply, vet at hand, security etc are other expenses.
in-spite of all these you will make money if you adapt correct marketing strategy.
I shall suggest start with 15 animals and gain some experience. These many females will soon multiply and double themselves within a year.
If you are thinking of milk: keep “Surati” goats
If you think of meat: barbari, Bengali are the animals
All three types are good for stall feeding.
Jamuna pari, Beetle are large goats may not be suitable for heavy rain area and stall feeding.
