THEIKGA

This Association is founded on the following basic principles:

- Member Ownership: Our members enjoy full participation in all IKGA policy making and group benefits.

- Better Breeding Through Science: We believe in helping each other apply a scientific approach to our breed improvement programs.

- Good Business: The Association applies sound business principles to our internal and external affairs.

- Economical Production of Goat Meat: We believe in supporting our members in the development of smart management practices that maximize profits in the marketplace.

Our membership appreciates the superior characteristics of the Kiko breed and the IKGA is dedicated to promoting the Kiko goat as the best production meat goat in the world. Our membership believes that by working together, we can continue to improve the Kiko breed through the use of controlled scientific study and independent performance testing.

The International KIKO GOAT Association (IKGA) has been established to preserve and advance the Kiko breed. The foundation bloodlines defined as the Kiko breed were developed and documented in New Zealand in the 1980's. The IKGA recognizes the original Kiko goat imports and their direct descendants as "fullblood" Kikos.
