Supporting sustainable livestock value chains to restore large rangelands
Rangelands are critical for biodiversity, ecosystem services, and the livelihoods of millions of pastoralists.
These uncultivated grasslands, shrublands, woodlands, wetlands, and savannas play very important roles for both domestic and wild animals who use their native vegetation for grazing and survival. However, degradation of these areas is high, and funding for their improvement and restoration is far lower than that for forests.
