摘要：

This paper discusses the consequences of national policies and increases in human population in south-west Masailand, Tanzania. Adoption of the Tanzanian village agricultural production system is transforming traditional pastoral societies into agro-pastoral ones. The conflicting requirements of sedentarly agriculture and mobile pastoralism impose mutual limitations upon each other, leading to resource degradation and decline in both forms of production. To achieve sustainable development, the paper recommends improvement in land tenure rules, control of population growth, destocking and raising crop and livestock productivity. © 1991 Academic Press Limited.
