The difference between nomadic and grassland animal husbandry

The difference between nomadic industry and pasture grazing lies in the scale of operation, technical level, distribution area and product use.

Nomadic industry is small in scale and low in technical level, belonging to subsistence agriculture and extensive agriculture, while large-scale animal husbandry is large in scale and higher in technical level than nomadic industry, belonging to commodity agriculture and intensive agriculture.

Nomadic industry belongs to extensive agriculture and has no fixed production area. Large-scale production of grazing in large pastures has a fixed production area.

First, the difference between nomadic industry and ranch animal husbandry

1. Different scale of operation: nomadic industry is small in scale and belongs to extensive agriculture, while pasture is large in scale and belongs to intensive agriculture.

2. Different technical levels: the technical level of nomadic industry is low, and the technical level of grazing in large pasture is high.

3. Different distribution areas: nomads should be distributed in North Africa, the Middle East, Central Asia and other places, and pasture animal husbandry is mainly distributed in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Argentina, South Africa and other countries and regions.

4. The product uses are different: nomadic industry belongs to subsistence agriculture, and grazing on large pastures belongs to commodity agriculture.

Second, the characteristics of ranch animal husbandry

Animal husbandry in pastoral areas has the characteristics of large production scale, high commodity rate and high degree of specialization. The location conditions are mild climate, lush vegetation, vast land and sparse population, low land rent, flat terrain, close to the harbor, convenient transportation and high scientific and technological level.

Third, the characteristics of nomadic industry

1. Nomadic industry belongs to a primitive and extensive animal husbandry, with no fixed production area, low production efficiency and serious impact on grassland environment and natural environment.

2. Nomadic owners should exist in the vast and sparsely populated grassland climate zone. The production of nomadic industry depends entirely on the reproduction and growth of livestock to provide live animals and livestock products, and livestock can only grow and reproduce by grazing.
