Why was drought not only a natural problem but also an economic crisis for pastoralists?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Reduced fodder and water threatened both livestock and the income earned from it

Livestock was pastoralists’ main asset, and they depended on milk, wool, animal sales, and other animal products for income. During drought, shortages of grass and water made animals weak, reduced milk yield, and could even cause deaths. Thus, both their assets and earnings were threatened. Option B is the closest opposite distractor because drought does not normally increase livestock production. Exam tip: link shortage of fodder and water with loss of livestock and income.
