Herders in Jimsar County, located in the Changji Hui Autonomous Prefecture of northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, have embarked on a significant livestock migration. This ambitious move involves transferring 150,000 animals to greener summer pastures, aiming to complete the process by the end of May.
This seasonal migration not only supports the sustainability of local agriculture but also ensures that the livestock have access to optimal grazing conditions during the warmer months. The coordinated efforts of the herdsmen highlight the enduring traditions and adaptive practices that sustain the region's agricultural productivity.
