Really interesting article, thanks. Seems odd that the goat appear to not be actually commonly eaten?

While goat milk is seldom consumed, the meat a luxury reserved for special occasions and goat cheese basically unknown, the goats of Malawi perform a much more essential function. They offer a store of value accessible even to the poorest Malawian, a portable savings technology that outperforms all others.
