Pastoralism in Sudan is a traditional way of life. It is a form of natural resource use and management that comprises a variety of movements ranging from pure nomadism characterized by year around camel breeding and long-distance migration, to seasonal movements over shorter distances. Some pastoralists combine seasonal farming with raising livestock-raising; and these are known as agro-pastoralists.
Historically, there has long been tension along pastoral corridors over land and grazing rights between nomads and farmers. But recently, some parts of the country have been caught in a complex tangle of severe droughts and dwindling resources. Disputes flare up between farmers and pastoralists as migrating camel and livestock herders in search of water and pasture for their animals during the dry season would sometime graze on farmers' lands and use their water points. Disputes over lost crops, and access to water and pastoralists’ routes are sometimes settled by tribal leaders. However, severe droughts, and increased mechanized farming worsened the situation. Combined with a lack of institutionalized mechanisms for land and water rights and usage, all these factors lead to widespread seasonal tensions between pastoralists and farmers on one hand and between traditional farmers and owners of big mechanized farms on the other.
To help address the root-causes of these tensions the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) and the United Nations Development Programme launched in 2004 the Reduction of Resource Based Conflicts Project. Targeting the drought-prone areas the four-year initiative used to be carried out in North Darfur. But the conflicts between farmers and nomads that had started over natural resources had escalated into a full-scale war forcing the Project to suspend its activities in Darfur. It has since focused on three states: North Kordofan, Upper Nile and Sobat Basin.
