Abstract

Twenty villages were selected from pastoral and agropastoral communities for a survey, randomly selected from participant and non-participant communities, along with follow-up interviews. Preliminary findings are presented from the first phase of the study. A cost-benefit analysis is included that compares various types of livestock (camels, cattle, sheep, goats), effects on livelihoods, and return on investment.
