The state run Angora farm is a kilometer ahead from Gwaldam’s main bazaar, established in 1987. The farm has five Shila which houses 35-37 animals. During the day, the goats are taken to graze in the nearby meadows leaving the newborns safely behind. One enclosure has 60 massive German Angora rabbits.
The man in-charge runs a tight shift on the elaborate breeding and feeding habits of these exotic rabbits. The cultivation of Angora rabbit wool is considered an alternative to sheep rearing.
