Reference is made to the down fibre quality, yield and profile of the samples compared to Chinese cashmere. The paper concludes with the future possibilities of establishing a viable cashmere industry in South Africa.enDeveloping animal agricultureCashmereCashmere industry - South AfricaIndigenous goat breedsFibre productionConference PresentationBraun, A.
