Definición

  • Pastoralism is broadly defined as a land use system where communities raise livestock, such as camels, goats, cattle, sheep, llamas, or yaks, to make a living. It involves herding on natural pastures and implies that animal husbandry is the dominant strategy in an economic and cultural sense. [Source: Encyclopedia of Environment and Society; Pastoralism]
