Abstract:
The study assessed the challenges associated with sustainable provision of livestock extension service in selected agropastoral fulani settlements in the state. The data for the study were collected with the aid of structured questionnaire, and analysed with descriptive statistics, Chi Square and Pearson Product Moment Correlation coefficient. The result from the study revealed that the challenges of livestock extension practice in agropastoral settlements are; lack of incentives to work in agropastoral areas and poor road networks perceived by (61.4%) and (54.47%) of the extension service providers respectively. The transhumance lifestyle of some of the households was perceived by (50.95%) of the extension service providers as a major challenge to livestock extension service provision in these areas. Pearson Product Moment Correlation analysis showed that, the challenges of livestock extension service were significantly related to the working experience of the extension staff (p< 0.05). Chi square analysis result also shows a significant relationship between the challenges of livestock extension practice in agropastoral settlements and the area of specialisation and language competency of the extension staff. It was therefore concluded that, the traditional organizational structure of extension services may be inappropriate for working in pastoral areas. The study recommended that, to reduce these challenges, extension staff from pastoral backgrounds, which are based in pastoral communities, could be recruited and trained for specialised livestock extension services to the agropastoral settlements.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTThis paper analyses the role of cattle in the entwined dynamics of conflict and violence in the Fizi and Itombwe region of South Kivu province, in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. On the one hand, agropastoral conflict intensifies armed mobilisation, allowing armed groups to draw upon particular conflict narratives that generate popular and elite support. It also creates incentives for armed actors to engage in cattle-looting, or the defence against it, for both symbolic and material reasons. On the other hand, the presence of armed forces and the use of violence profoundly shape agropastoral conflicts. Importantly, they change the perceived stakes of these conflicts, and hamper their resolution. By showing that the relations between cattle-related conflict and armed activity are indirect, complex and mutual, the paper refines both theories on agropastoral conflict and those highlighting the role of local conflicts in fuelling violence in the eastern Congo.

Abstract:
Island environments present challenges to human colonization, but we have a poor understanding of how environmental difference drives heterogeneous patterns of insular settlement. In this paper, we assess which environmental and geographic variables positively or negatively affect the long-term sustainability of human settlement on islands. Using the postglacial Mediterranean basin as a case study, we assess the impact of area, isolation index, species richness, and net primary productivity (NPP) on patterns of island occupation for both hunter-gatherer and agropastoral populations. We find that models involving area most effectively accounts for sustainability in hunter-gatherer island settlement. The agropastoral data are noisier, perhaps due to culturally specific factors responsible for the distribution of the data; nonetheless, we show that area and NPP exert profound influence over sustainability of agropastoral island settlement. We conclude by suggesting that this relates to the capacity of these variables to impact demographic robusticity directly.

Abstract:
This paper explores the changing climate, its impact, and the diversified practices of agropastoral adaption by a mountain community of Nepal. The findings reveal that there is an unswerving link between the changes in climate and their impact on the community and its adaptation options. The vulnerability and risk induced by the climate change has threatened the agropastoral subsistence, the sociocultural and economic structure, and the food sovereignty of the Loba community of Mustang district of Nepal and made them experience unanticipated complications in livelihood. In a changing climate, the community has attuned and restructured its adaptive strategy with diversified practices of collective labour in a traditional agropastoral system of landholding, mystical connectivity and seasonal relocation as an adaptive response ensuring the shared sustenance of the com munity. The challenge of climate change began long ago; it will persevere and be long- lasting. Hence, this paper argues for the need for a prudent adoption of measures to maintain an environmentally suitable agropastoral system of liveli hood well-being. Beyond enhancing community capacity and climate resilience, it is necessary to streamline and readjust indigenous sociocultural institutions by expanding their adaptive capacity, while recognizing the cultural dimensions grounded in systems of meanings and relationships and the way people and their culture experience and respond to exceptional climatic changes.

Full text
Abstract:
Regional- and biome-scale paleoecological analyses and archaeological syntheses in the mountain landscapes of the western Pyrenees suggest that the Long Anthropocene began with agropastoral land use at the onset of the Neolithic. Historical and geographic analyses emphasize the marginality of the western Pyrenees and the role of enforced social norms exacted by intense solidarities of kin and neighbors in agropastoral production. Both are satisfying and simple narratives, yet neither offers a realistic framework for understanding complex processes or the contingency and behavioral variability of human agents in transforming a landscape. The Long Anthropocene in the western Pyrenees was a spatially and temporally heterogeneous and asynchronous process, and the evidence frequently departs from conventional narratives about human landscape degradation in this agropastoral situation. A complementary place-based strategy that draws on geoarchaeological, biophysical, and socio-ecological factors is used to examine human causality and environmental resilience and demonstrate their relationship with the sustainability of mountain landscapes of the western Pyrenees over medium to long time intervals.

Abstract:
The authors present survey findings from agropastoral households living near tourist attraction sites and undertake agropastoral activities, conservation, and community tourism enterprises in Laikipia, Kenya. Laikipia is a major wildlife migration route, popular with private conservancies and ranches, attracting large numbers of tourists. The authors explore the key determinants of participation in community tourism and find that communication and road infrastructure, membership of community groups, and security aspects influence household participation in community tourism. Policies aiming to improve infrastructure and security and to encourage the formation of investment groups would enhance participation in community tourism activities and raise household incomes.

Abstract:
La fièvre de la vallée du Rift (FVR) est une arbovirose zoonotique émergente, touchant principalement l'homme et les ruminants. En l'absence de traitement spécifique et de moyen de prévention efficace, la prédiction des lieux à risque est un enjeu important de la lutte contre cette maladie. En milieu agropastoral sahélien du Sénégal, la période à risque est la saison des pluies, lorsque hôtes et vecteurs se rencontrent autour de mares temporairement inondées. La transmission du virus est complexe, car elle implique au moins deux espèces de vecteurs d'écologies différentes (Aedes vexans et Culex poicilipes) et des hôtes sédentaires ou nomades. Le virus est enzootique dans la communauté rurale de Barkedji. Afin d'y prédire le niveau de risque, défini comme l'intensité du contact hôtes-vecteurs en saison des pluies, nous avons mis en place un modèle prédictif de la répartition spatiale des troupeaux, à partir de données satellitales et de terrain. Puis les mares temporaires, gîtes des vecteurs, ont été détectées sur une série d'images SPOT5 et utilisées pour estimer l'abondance vectorielle relative. Ces données ont ensuite été synthétisées dans un modèle attribuant à chaque pixel de la zone d'étude un niveau de risque relatif. Les résultats obtenus sont encourageants, quoi que le modèle doive être amélioré et validé. L'intérêt majeur de notre travail est de présenter une approche méthodologique spécifique aux problématiques de santé-environnement, basée sur l'étude des interactions entre les éléments du cycle épidémiologique et le milieu. Nous espérons également qu'à moyen terme, il constituera une aide appréciable pour le réseau de surveillance sénégalais de la FVR.

Abstract:
Abstract In developing countries like Tanzania, societal vulnerability to the risks of climate change and variability (CC&V) exacerbate ongoing social and economic challenges because people's livelihoods are largely dependent on resources that are sensitive to climate change such as agriculture. Although studies show that most communities in Africa have low adaptive capacity, for centuries people have developed traditional adaptation strategies to face climate inter-annual variability and extreme events based on their long-term experiences. Various studies show how CC&V have impacted the socio-economic and and environmental conditions among the pastoral and agropastoral societies. However, little emphasis has been given to studying the community's resilience status to CC&V impacts. Much of the focus has been placed on studying the community vulnerability and impacts of CC&V as well as coping and adaptation strategies to avert CC&V impacts. Little is known on how the interaction between society and nature can enhance or reduce community resilience under changing climate. The study was conducted in two villages, Ibulyu and Mahaha, in Bariadi District. The main objective of the study was to deepen our understanding of the socio-ecological resilience of agropastoral communities to CC&V impacts in a semi-arid district. The study employed both qualitative and quantitative research designs. Quantitative data were captured through a household survey whereas qualitative data was collected through focus group discussion, key informant interviews and field observation. The results show that CC&V have negatively affected the farming system in the study area. The ecological setting of the area has significantly been altered to the extent that it cannot provide the required ecosystem services and products that are important for human and livestock sustainance. Changes in the production system have negatively affected community resilience and increased their vulnerability.
