Rangelands, Drylands & Pastoralism

The scope of this Regional Law shall be to ensure conservation and rational tenancy of agricultural land and urban land and it establishes requirements for grazing and passage of cattle on the regional territory. Owners of cattle must form their livestock in herds and appoint a herdsman.

La présente loi fixe les principes et les règles générales régissant l’aménagement et la gestion des espaces pastoraux et sylvo pastoraux, l’utilisation et le développement des ressources pastorales, la transhumance pastorale et la mobilité des troupeaux.

Taking a gender-responsive approach to Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) means that the particular needs, priorities, and realities of men and women are recognized and adequately addressed in the design and application of CSA so that both men and women can equally benefit.

The gender gap in agriculture affects how men and women access and benefit from CSA.

Rangelands are the mainstay of pastoral livelihoods worldwide. Within rangelands, there are landscape depressions or lowlands characterized by high production potentials with their unique edaphic and hydrologic properties.
