Пасторализм лежит на стыке трех столпов устойчивого развития и обеспечивает сочетание социальных, экологических и экономических выгод. Он использует обширные участки земли, которые могут лучше всего подходить для многоцелевого использования: обширное производство высококачественных продуктов питания в сочетании с поставкой высокоценных экосистемных услуг. Направления политики, государственные службы и инвестиции должны быть адаптированы для поддержки этой комбинации использования и для того, чтобы весь спектр преимуществ был адекватно компенсирован и защищен.

Rangelands are large natural landscapes that can include grasslands, shrublands, savannahs and woodlands. They are greatly influenced by, and often dependent on, the action of herbivores. In the majority of rangelands the dominant herbivores are found in domestic herds that are managed by mobile pastoralists. Most pastoralists manage their rangelands communally, benefitting from the greater flexibility and seasonal resource access that common property regimes can offer. As this book shows, this creates a major challenge for governance and institutions.
