Abstract EN
This research assessed the agro-pastoralists livestock keeping strategies and their impacts on environment in North Kordofan State.
Primary data were collected through household questionnaires, focus group discussions, key informants interviews and personal observations while secondary data were collected from relevant local authority reports and records.
A total of 420 households were interviewed.
The agro-pastoralists and pastoralists in the study area consider the mechanisms of herd diversification, animal birth control and movement as highly benefit to their animal razing system, while selling animals as lowly beneficial and this proves their social attitudes towards their herders despite practicing animals trade especially sheep.
