Geese

Abstract

At present there is no commercial production of geese in the Territory, but there are definite possibilities. From a few weeks old, geese can live entirely on grass, so they would be suitable for most of the Territory. An acre of good land will graze up to forty geese, and the production could be as much as $500 per acre per year. This is allowing for a survival rate of only four goslings per goose per year, selling at $5 per head.
