Explain why Nomadic tribes need to move from one place to another. what are the advantage to the environment of this continuous movement?
Answers
the nomadic movers are moving because they are looking for food and that's why they do not know how to cultivate or plant ....
The Nomadic tribes need to move from one
place to another because:
a) They do not have regular fields
to get fodder for their herds. They need pastures to graze their livestock.
b)They cannot stay for long in
one area because availability of pasture & water is limited.
c) In winter season when the high
Mountains are covered with snow they live in lower Hills.The dry scrub forests provide pasture for their herds.
d) In summer season the nomads
begin climbing up the mountain slopes to the summer grazing Grounds. with the
onset of Summer season snow melts and the mountain field turn green.
========================================================
Advantages to the
environment of this continuous movement:
The cyclic
movement of the pastoralists allow sufficient time for restoration of natural
vegetation. The vegetation on the higher tracks of mountains and on the
foothills are not allowed to overgrow , and it is utilized by humans and
animals. The continuous movement of the pastoralist adds manure to the fields
and allows the pastures to recover. Grazing
on the pastures prevents overuse of land for cultivation and other purposes.
