Question

what is transhumance

Answer 1

Explanation:

The activity or practice of moving animals in a seasonal cycle, usually to lowlands in winter and highlands in summer from one grazing ground to another is known as transhumance. Transhumance is a form of pastoralism or nomadism, a seasonal animal movement between fixed pastures in the summer and in the winter.

Pastoral societies are often important, as the dairy products of transhumance flocks and herds which are the milk, butter, yogurt and cheese form much of the diet of these populations.

Answer 2

The term transhumance can be defined as the seasonal movement of human groups with their animals (livestock).

Explanation:

These people are known as pastorals. The pastoral nomadic societies can be defined as the group of people who traveled with their domesticated animals such as buffalos, sheep, camels, reindeer, goats and other cattle as they depend on them for the food.

Pastoral nomads are primarily found in the "Central and Southwest Asia", and "North Africa" as they live in the large belt of arid and semiarid land in these regions.
