dc.description.abstractSheep are traditionally raised under either stationary or migratory system. Several times, feed scarcity on rangeland forces flock owners to migrate with their flocks for sustenance (Kaul et al., 2004). Migratory sheep rearing is very common among the economically weaker sections of society. Migratory sheep production continues to be an important source of employment (Kumar 2015). However, with the changing times and availability of diverse occupations, there is decline in the number of pastoral nomads (Singh et al., 2006). The present investigation was undertaken in Thanjavur district of Tamil Nadu with the objectives to study the socio- economic conditions of the migratory sheep farmers and migratory pattern of sheep, to examine cost, yield, income realization and employment generation in migratory sheep system and to document the constraints in migratory sheep rearing system.en_US
