Faced with the many challenges of the 21st century, livestock farming in Mediterranean and tropical zones is under considerable pressure. Contested in some areas, weakened by unstable markets and climate change, ruminant breeders suffer from the pressure exerted on pastures by other land users. Yet grazing livestock maintains deep-rooted links with the land, helping to forge its identity. Through twelve case studies, this book sheds light on these tensions in a variety of contexts, from Reunion Island to Corsica, via Minervois, India, Vietnam, Burkina Faso, Senegal, Chad, Tunisia and Amazonia. Using innovative methods, the book offers a fresh look at the links between livestock farming and territories. First, it presents tools for assessing the multiple roles of livestock farming. It then proposes grids for analyzing modes of governance in this activity. Finally, it shows how research can support local players in the transition to sustainable and equitable resource management. Aimed at professionals and researchers alike, this book provides keys for reading and acting on the controversies that are shaking up the world of livestock farming.
