The work was developed in the period from April 2019 to October 2021, in the farm "Los Miglioris" in La Isla de la Juventud, with the objective of contributing to the creation of a reference farm for the extension of the Boer goat breed in that entity. A characterization of the farm was carried out, taking into account the number of animals per species, human capital and total area. Extension methods such as field days, demonstrations, courses and workshops were applied. Theoretical and empirical methods were used, and a figure was proposed in the form of a guiding thread for the creation of a reference farm for the Boer breed. As main results, a participative diagnosis was applied in the farm to know the existing conditions for the extension of the Boer breed, with which it was recognized that it was necessary to develop improvement actions in the productive unit. Extension actions are proposed for the creation of a reference farm in the "Los Miglioris" farm, which will serve as an experimental polygon to extend the experience to other producers in the territory.

Palabras clave : participatory diagnosis; extension; reference farm.
