A study was undertaken to investigate the adoption of improved scientific goat rearing practices in Perambalur district of Tamil Nadu. Data collected from 100 farmers revealed that breeding management (43.58%) had a highest adoption index followed by kid management (43.0%), health care (32.83) and feeding practices (13.91%) for goats. The overall adoption index for improved practices by goat farmers was 33%, which indicated poor adoption of improved goat rearing practices in the study area.
