Produktbeschreibung
Pastoralism is the most dominant land use form in the arid rangelands of Sub-Saharan Africa In Ethiopia, rangelands cover about 61 to 65% of the total area of the country and are home to 12%-15% of the human population, and 26% of the total livestock population.

This implies that rehabilitation is a matter of priorities and should follow by a detailed assessment of the state of health of the rangelands.
