Explain why nomadic tribes need to move from one place to another. What are the advantages to the environment of this continuous movement?
Why nomadic tribes need to move:
Nomadic tribes need to move from one place to another to find new pastures (grazing grounds) and water for their livestock. They cannot stay in one place throughout the year because the pastures get exhausted, and weather conditions (like extreme winter or dry summer) make specific areas unsuitable for grazing.
Advantages to the environment:
Recovery of Pastures: The continuous movement allows the used pastures to recover and regrow. This prevents overgrazing.
Manure for Soil: When the livestock graze and move, their dung provides valuable manure to the fields, making the soil fertile for farmers.
