The prosperity of the meadows and the beautiful work of the cattle breeder invited us to the cattle breeders of the Kalaja e Dodës and Peshkopia area.

 

Within the framework of the project “Sustainable grazing for the preservation of vital pasture ecosystems”, INCA, in cooperation with the local association Agro-Eko Dibra, with the aim of preserving alpine pastures in the Korab-Koritnik Natural Park, organized meetings with livestock farmers in the area to support sustainable grazing. Through the assessment of threatened habitats and the treatment of the phenomenon of pasture abandonment, discussions were held on improving the conditions of shepherds, offering ways to diversify their income and address human-wildlife conflicts.

In this meeting with livestock farmers in the area of Kalaja e Dodës and Peshkopia, as part of the established network of local users, the extent and state of conservation of pasture habitats in the Korab-Koritnik Nature Park were discussed, as well as specific conditions for assessing the socio-economic situation of pasture users (herders) in order to identify the drivers of decline and abandonment of the activity.

Cooperation will be more effective when the combination of traditional experience in preserving the natural values of pastures and addressing their problems in the right way and with the right tools becomes part of the management of pasture areas and institutional responsibility.
