Arapawa goats are currently a dual-purpose goat used for meat and dairy. There are currently no known milk stats for the breed but there is hope to have milk tested in the future.
A few breeders have pulled the winter fiber produced by the Arapawa when it is shed and has been used to spin with other livestock fibers. It has been said to be incredibly soft, there is not a lot there to use on its own.
Arapawa are used at zoos, museums, and public farms in educational programs to help promote the breed.
