Admir Fejzić from Visoko: A salary of a doctor can be earned from 20 goats

Admir Fejzić from Visoko, with his own example, shows that Bosnia and Herzegovina is a promising country and that there is work for everyone who wants to work, regardless of the difficult political situation in the country, writes the BH news agency Patria (NAP).

Although he is only 25 years old, he has several private businesses. The latest is with goats. This veterinarian sees an opportunity for many new jobs precisely in small goat farms, which do not number more than 50 heads. This number, he explains, is enough for a family to earn much more than the current average in BiH.

- My small farm has only 20 goats, which give me about 50 liters of milk every day. One liter of goat milk costs four marks on the market. According to this calculation, my goats earn about 200 KM daily. If only 30 percent of that remains for me, and 70 percent goes to maintaining the goats, my monthly salary comes out to about 2000 KM - Fejzić explains to the Patria agency.

- That is far above the average in our country - he adds.

Admir is a veterinarian and, together with his friend Muhamed, owns a private veterinary station near Visoko, and he says he recently started the goat business to show others that one can live well from their work.

- I have no problems selling goat milk. It is high quality, extremely healthy, and in demand, and it is difficult to obtain in BiH. If you can buy it in some shopping center, it is imported milk. And people would rather drink domestic - says Fejzić, who will soon, in addition to milk, start producing goat cheese, which fetches a much better price than milk.

- I am currently raising Sanski goats. However, I recently brought an Alpine goat from the island of Pag in Croatia, which gives up to five liters of milk. That is about 50 percent more than a Sanski goat, and therefore 50 percent more income for the same work - Fejzić tells Patria.
