Hi Dark, I do believe the manual gives some general advice on this issue. Anything less than 10 goods or cows is seen as a poor gift between clans. 7 goods is a minimum for sacrifice, 14 or more is preferable. The exchange rate is roughly 1 cow = 1 good = 4 food, if I recall. As one of my ring members occasionally says, think of goods as portable cows which don't moo. In other words, they are pretty equivalent, except that it's generally better to use goods in situations where you have a choice between the two and can spare them, as cows are the lifeblood of the clan.
