How do you stop a goat eating everything (other than its food)

Goats are notorious for eating everything and anything they can find.

Apart from making sure that their grass areas are kept as clear as possible of things, what more can be done to train them not to eat things they shouldn't?

How do you stop goats from nibbling at your clothes?

As far as I know, goats cannot be trained to eat only the food that they should eat, which is grass. What we can do is to prevent them from reaching plants or even clothes. Lets make sure that their yard is sufficient for their feeding. Goats are really voracious because they eat almost anything like papers, clothes, and even sometimes cellophanes.
