In the Philippines, two varieties of goats are predominantly raised for meat production.
The first variety is characterized by coarse hair and typically comes in cream, tan, or light brown colors. These goats are usually polled, meaning they lack horns.
The second variety is distinguished by fine hair and possesses horns. They are commonly found in black or brown hues and may exhibit a white belt marking. It is believed that this variety originated from the Katjang breed.
