A Goat Circular Farming System has been built in Bao Loc

Following Family Tradition

In 2018, with a bank loan of VND 100 million, Chinh converted 5,000 m² of garden land into a Boer goat farm with breeding stock imported from South Africa. His barns were designed for natural light and ventilation, with bio-mats used to produce organic fertilizer for grass and crops. In turn, crop byproducts became animal feed, forming a closed-loop cycle of “goat – fertilizer – grass – goat.”

Despite graduating as a pharmacist with career opportunities in major southern cities, Chinh chose to return to his hometown in the Central Highlands to modernize his parents’ traditional goat farming. Within just a few years, his herd grew to 400–500 goats, producing around 50 tons of meat annually, with revenues exceeding VND 2 billion and profits over VND 1 billion.

From 2020 to 2025, thanks to circular farming practices, both his revenues and profits increased more than tenfold. Alongside goat farming, he cultivates 3 hectares of high-yield coffee and 1 hectare of mangosteen, durian, jackfruit, and avocado, ensuring both feed supply and diversified farm income.

Expanding the Model

Today, Chinh maintains about 1,000 Boer goats, including 500–600 on his farm and 400–500 raised by 8 partner households under his circular farming network. He supplies breeding goats, technical guidance, and market access, while members provide land, barns, and crop byproducts for feed. Profits are split evenly between Chinh and the households.

His farm also creates jobs for more than 10 local workers and has trained over 30 farming households, while donating Boer goat breeds to 20 low-income families. Additionally, the farm regularly welcomes students and tourists to experience feeding goats, harvesting grass, composting organic fertilizer, and learning about sustainable circular agriculture.

Now recognized under the brand “Quang Chinh Goat Farm,” his operation is known for quality assurance, food safety, and transparent processes. The farm uses only purebred Boer goats, separates breeding from meat production, and applies modern housing designs to reduce disease and limit antibiotics. Products are sold steadily through contractual value chains.

Chinh credits his success to combining science, technology, and cooperative value-chain production closely tied to market demand — turning a family tradition into a sustainable agribusiness model for the region.
