Transhumance refers to the seasonal movement of livestock between fixed summer and winter pastures. Examples include the migration of sheep herders in the Alps who move their flocks to higher elevations during the summer for grazing, and the movement of pastoralists in Mongolia who migrate with their livestock to find better grazing grounds as seasons change. Another example is the movement of cattle herders in the Sahel region of Africa, who travel between the grasslands and dry areas to optimize grazing resources throughout the year.
Transhumance, the seasonal movement of livestock between fixed summer and winter pastures, offers several advantages, such as optimized grazing, improved animal health, and enhanced biodiversity in ecosystems. It allows herders to utilize different landscapes effectively and can lead to sustainable land management. However, disadvantages include potential conflicts over land use, vulnerability to climate change and environmental degradation, and the challenge of maintaining traditional practices in the face of modernization and economic pressures. Additionally, transhumant communities may face social marginalization and loss of cultural identity.
