Ranches Remain The Only Option For Ending Herdsmen/Sedentary Farmers Crises in Nigeria:




This demarcated lush green grass field (a ranch) can be artificially produced in core northern Nigeria's vast land to accommodate the thousands of cattle herds that are now being moved to other parts of the country, with consequent crises between herdsmen and sedentary farmers that have cost thousands of human lives, maimed thousands of others and destroyed property worth billions of Naira. The money and efforts that have been "invested" so far by cattle owners to sustain nomadic grazing of cattle, by all means, if invested in the Ranch System, should have solved 3/4 of this herdsmen/farmers problem, leaving just a little for the govt to complete. It's time to call it quit with this outdated and destructive grazing practice of wandering here and there with cattle in search of pastures.  Image result for ranches
