| Research Abstract |
A change in the transhumance of sheep in the southern part of East Europe has been studied by fiscal 2012, based on the own research results in the past. In Romania, land degradation was serious after undergoing the Socialist Regime in1989. After shifting to free market system, numbers of heads of sheep decreased and accordingly, land degradation was mitigated particularly after 2005. After joining EU in 2007, sheep have been moving to the winter ranges by trucks or freight cars. The numbers of heads of sheep to move to the summer pasture on the mountain ridge areas in summer have been decreasing drastically. That invasion of trees to the grasslands on the mountain ridge areas have been observed in recent years and therefore, sustainable management of the grasslands should be important in the future, has become clear over the past three years.
