Five-Year Financial Projections
Revenue is generated from three streams: (1) slaughter animal sales to abattoirs and butcheries, (2) breeding stock sales (superior does and bucks), and (3) supplementary income from goat skins, offal, and ceremonial direct sales at a 15–20% price premium above abattoir rates.…

6.1 Revenue Model

Average selling prices escalate at 7% per annum in line with historical market price appreciation.
