- •
We examine historical change in the drivers of livestock movements in Kazakhstan.
- •
In the past principal drivers were bio-physical factors such as forage and snow.
- •
Livestock movements are now governed by a more complex set of push and pull factors.
- •
The role of economic factors such as herd size has grown.
- •
Changes are linked to loss of traditional or state institutions supporting mobility.
