Description

On 26 August 1972, Afghan officials launched a rangeland management project aimed at preventing overgrazing. Specialists surveyed grasslands and assessed damage caused by expanding herd sizes. Recommendations included rotational grazing and protective enclosures. Community workshops were held to teach improved land stewardship practices. The project strengthened environmental conservation efforts across rural provinces.
