Résumé anglais Recent periods of drought have followed many other crises, where famine has resulted from drought, epidemics, epizootics and locust invasions. Faced with these catastrophes, shepards have developed numerous strategies, linking mobility and a diversification of resources. Recurrent droughts have led the government and developers to attempt to create groups of breeders similar to the cooperatives which have already been set up in rural areas. Currently shepards are increasingly blamed for practicing a form of pastoralism which is judged outdated.
