The Organizing Committeeħ FOREWORD The goat, perhaps the first animal tobe domesticated, occupies an important place in the rural economy of the humid tropics as a sourceof meat. This conference would not have been possible without the generous support received from the Netherlands Ministry for Development Cooperation (DPO/OT), the International Livestock Centre for Africa (ILCA), the West African Milk Company, the Agricultural University Wageningen and the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife.
