The image of the cowboy herding cattle on the open range is not an accurate description of commercial cattle ranching in the United States today because land use changes and other economic activities have eliminated the open range. From the 1860s to the 1880s, cattle were driven to railroads to be taken to slaughterhouses. However, other economic activities, farming especially, began to employ grazing lands for other uses. With the invention of barbed wire, private lands could be fenced in cheaply and easily, thus limiting where the cowboys could graze the cattle. Previously, fences had to be made of wood, which was very expensive because it was scarce on the treeless prairies. Nowadays, cattle are raised on private ranches or leased public or private grazing lands, and frequently fattened in commercial feedlots before slaughter. Meatpacking houses are generally located within the cattle raising areas so the cattle do not have to be taken far.

Nowadays, cattle are loaded onto cattle trucks or trains. Though "cowboys" still use horses for daily chores of looking after the cattle on the range surrounding the ranch, the long cattle drives over several weeks to a distant market are a thing of the past. Most of the old drove route have vanished beneath modern farms and housing.

Herding in the Sahel has had both positive and negative effects on the environment. On one hand, traditional herding practices can promote biodiversity and soil fertility by allowing vegetation to regenerate and prevent desertification. On the other hand, overgrazing and the expansion of commercial herding have led to deforestation, soil erosion, and loss of biodiversity, exacerbating the environmental challenges faced in the region. Sustainable and regulated herding practices are necessary to mitigate these negative impacts.
Important Economic activities in Africa include commercial farming, mining, oil extraction, and nomadic herding.
