Item Food Consumption And Nutritional Status Of Settled And Semisettled Gabra Women Aged 15-49 Years In Kalacha Location, Marsabit, Kenya(Adongo A O, 2009) Adongo, A.O.There are about 20 million pastoral households worldwide, of which 10 million are found in Central Asia (Blench, 2001). The rest are found in sub-Saharan Africa where pastoralists and agro-pastoralist account for 20 million and 240 million people respectively (Blench, 2001).

This is split between the extensive enclosed systems (ranching) typical of North America, Australia and parts of South America and the open-access systems in Africa, Asia and Siberia (Blench, 200 I; Sutie, 200 I).
