MEDCASE is dedicated to enhancing the sustainability and resilience of goat farming in the Mediterranean. Facing challenges like climate change, we focus on optimizing goat production using innovative, low-cost strategies. Our mission is to support rural communities, particularly in harsh environments, by promoting goat farming as a versatile, climate-resilient solution for nutritional and economic stability.
Facing the forefront of climate change, Webgoat's commitment is unwavering. We're channeling innovation into the heart of Mediterranean agro-pastoral systems, enhancing the resilience of goat farming to environmental stressors. Our initiatives are tailored to develop robust breeds, improve feed efficiency, and reduce water usage—key steps in securing food sources and livelihoods against the backdrop of an unpredictable climate. With Webgoat, rural communities are not just surviving; they're equipped to adapt and flourish in the face of climate adversity.
Discover Best PracticesWe envision transforming goat farming into a key player in sustainable Mediterranean agriculture. Our vision is a future where traditional goat rearing aligns seamlessly with modern, eco-friendly methods, bolstering rural communities against climate change. Simultaneously, our mission focuses on pioneering ecological resilience and economic stability in goat farming. Through climate-smart, cost-effective strategies, we strive to optimize goat production, bolster rural livelihoods, and minimize environmental impact. Committed to nurturing traditional agro-pastoral systems, Webgoat aims to ensure their prosperity in sync with nature, fulfilling future nutritional needs.
