Land degradation is one of the main problems of Urzhar district, Eaten Kazakhstan area. Unsystematic cattle breading and excessive increase of pressure on pastures around the settlements has led to degradation of more than 40% of the grass-land ( ... )

It allowed land owners to prevent degradation of the natural fodder lands. At the moment the system of the seasonal pastures turnover is disorganized.
