New edition of Pastoralism journal available on-line

Thursday 11 October 2012

The articles in this Special Issue report from five continents, and tell different stories in each case, but all are thorough in their analysis of the interactions between people, livestock, wildlife and the environment.  The English case study ' Reconciling pastoral agriculture and nature conservation: developing a co-management approach in the English uplands' is authored by Christopher J Short and Janet Dwyer and examines practice in Exmoor.
