Mobile pastoralism

Mobile pastoralism is a traditional way of life where communities move periodically to find fresh pastures for their livestock, such as sheep, goats, or camels. This practice is typically seen in arid or semi-arid regions where land productivity varies seasonally. By following grazing patterns and water sources, mobile pastoralists can sustain their herds and ensure their livelihoods. This lifestyle not only reflects deep knowledge of the environment but also fosters strong cultural identities and social structures within these communities. Mobile pastoralism plays a crucial role in biodiversity and land management practices.
