Note: the sum exceeds 100%, because farmers use the combination of sources.
It is important to note that the farmers’ plots are used as pastures and sources of forage only when their leasehold holdings are large. Larger plots produce straw after wheat harvesting and plant forage crops. None of the small fruit farmers use their plots for the feeding of livestock. Because the leasehold farmers with larger holdings will lose only 3-5 percent of their land as a result of the Project, ID construction is not likely to create adverse impacts on the capacity of these farmers to keep the livestock.
