This could be because of lack of scientific information on most of the goat breeds. Research efforts are therefore needed to generate baseline information on most of the indigenous goat breeds. Generation of this scientific information may help to identify the ideal agro-ecological zone\u2013specific breeds which could be propagated among the livestock farmers. Further, such efforts can also help to identify intervening points to improve the production of such breeds. Information on drought tolerance and disease resistance are currently lacking on most of the indigenous goat breeds and therefore research attempts are essential in establishing such information for future use. Breeding strategies offer a huge scope for realizing the inherent potential of goat breeds. The technological advancements in the field of molecular biology offer a huge scope in identifying potential biomarkers for climate resilience in goat. Such attempt either could be a way forward to identify more climate-resilient goat breeds or could be useful in modifying the existing breeding programs to develop more breeds with optimum productive potential. Both the projected growing human populations as well as adverse impacts of climate change are alarming; hence, it is very essential to invest in goat not only to ensure food security but also to help the small and marginal farmers in tropical regions to sustain their economy.The manuscript was prepared as per journal specification and all subheadings adhere to the journal.","order":2,"name":"Ethics","group":{"name":"EthicsHeading","label":"Future researchable priorities"}},{"value":"The authors declare no competing interests.","order":3,"name":"Ethics","group":{"name":"EthicsHeading","label":"Conflict of interest"}}]}}
