The development of traditional cattle breeding in the Russian-Mongolian transborder area in the post-Socialist period (on the example of Buryatia and Mongolia)

The article presents a general overview of the development of traditional cattle breeding in the Russian-Mongolian transborder area in the post-socialist period. The authors note the symmetry of the processes on both sides of the border, characterized by the revival of low-cost pasture livestock farming as a response to the challenges of the transition period. Identical processes are observed between Mongolia and remote areas of Buryatia (Russia), where there has been a return to the traditional pasture-based type of animal husbandry. The modern practice of nomadism in Mongolia has a general tendency towards a lower degree of mobility and sedentariness. Semi-nomadic farming is becoming an increasingly common form as a result of the adaptation of livestock farming to market conditions and the environmental and climatic conditions of the arid zone of the Russian-Mongolian transborder
