Many areas can sustain goats but can't sustain agriculture. Goats can also eat stuff that is inedible to humans, for example the parts of wheat an corn that are not the grains. A lot of plant matter that has zero calories for humans has >0 calories for ruminants.

Commercial grazing tends to overgraze which is worse in the long run.

Sustainable meat production is probably extremely far from commercially viable.
