The great majority of pastoralists doubted both the future of pastoral farming in general and themselves specifically. Concerns about pastoralalism are growing, with some speculating about the demise of transhumant and nomadic farming. Their ability and willingness to change, particularly in the direction of a more intensive—and occasionally even sedentary—mode of cattle rearing, is what gives rise to optimism. Many herders assert that they are steadfastly committed to mobility and are not thinking about switching to another form of production. Many farmers have the choice to raise cattle in a semi-transhumant manner when the political, ecological, and security environments support it. It is especially appealing for young people who want to move to cities to stop raising cattle. This divergence, nevertheless, is frequently not final and does not always lead to a “intergenerational gap.”
