Pastoralism

Pastoralism is a traditional form of livelihood where people primarily depend on the herding and raising of livestock for food, materials, and trade. It is practiced in various regions worldwide, particularly in dry or sparsely populated areas where farming is challenging. Pastoralists often move their herds to find fresh pasture and water, a practice known as nomadism. This lifestyle fosters a close relationship with animals and the environment but can also lead to challenges, such as land use conflicts and vulnerability to climate change. Overall, pastoralism is a sustainable way of living that has existed for thousands of years.
