What did drought and colonial borders together do in the context of African pastoralists?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Drought reduced the availability of water and fodder, while colonial borders blocked access to alternative grazing lands

During drought, water and fodder became scarce, forcing pastoralists to seek better grazing areas. However, colonial borders, permits and controlled territories restricted their traditional seasonal movements and access to alternative pastures. Thus, the two factors together made pastoral life more insecure. Option B is the closest opposite distractor: drought does not improve pasture quality, and colonial borders did not make migration easier. Exam tip: link environmental stress with colonial restrictions on mobility.
