中国畜牧业的发展面临着肉类消费需求增长、气候变化、草地退化、国家政策变化等巨大压力。本文介绍了人类学田野调查的最新发现，采访了内蒙古农牧交错带的当地牧民、商人和当地官员，揭示了当地人如何适应气候变化和21世纪世纪新的国家畜牧业政策。在人类学访谈的基础上，探讨了农牧交错带畜牧业发展面临的机遇和挑战。结果表明，国家生态保护政策和肉类价格对畜牧业的影响比气候变化大得多，当地人认为。家庭围栏政策是一项旨在避免过度放牧和恢复植被的相对较新的政策，但当地牧民既不接受也不执行。造成这种情况的部分原因是围栏技术差、支助设施不足以及畜牧业成本高、利润率低。我们的结论是，在中国北方畜牧业可能会大大受益于农村合作社的发展和积极参与政策的设计和执行。
The development of animal husbandry in China is facing enormous pressure from increasing demand of meat consumption, climate change, degrading grassland, and changing national policies. This paper presents the latest findings from an anthropological field investigation interviewing local herders, traders, and local officials from farming–pastoral ecotone in Inner Mongolia and shed lights on how locals have adapted their lives to climate change and the new national husbandry policies of the twenty-first century. Based on the anthropological interviews, we discussed the future opportunities and challenges of animal husbandry development in farming–pastoral ecotone. Results suggested that national ecological conservation policies and meat price have much larger impacts on animal husbandry than climate change, as perceived by locals. Family Fencing Policy, a relatively new policy aiming to avoid overgrazing and restore vegetation, was neither well accepted nor well implemented by the local herders. This is partially explained by the poor fencing technology, insufficient support facilities, as well as the high costs and low-profit margins in the animal husbandry. We conclude by suggesting that pastoralism in Northern China may greatly benefit from the development of rural cooperatives and active participation of locals in policy designing and implementation.
