Publisher's Synopsis
While most people associate farming with cows, sheep cattle, and pigs, chickens, ducks and geese form a large part of the agricultural industry as well. Many people raise chickens as pets and provide eggs and meat for family meals. Cows provide milk and meat for dairy-based products such as cheese, milk and yogurt. Goats are raised to supply tallow and cashmere. They can be used for various other purposes as well, including clothes, fur and show. There are several types of farm animals that are raised for business purposes as well.
