  abstract = {{S}edentary farmers in the {V}olta {B}asin are endangering the activity of transhumant herders relying on grazing ranges between 9 degrees and 11 degrees {N}. {D}espite mutual benefits, farmers try to deny them access to water and thereby the possibility to graze their stock on crop residues. {T}his new behaviour is changing the geographical distribution of traditional activities and risks endangering herding activity, a leading economic resource in these regions. {M}eeting livestock watering requirements is thus a matter of local conflict resolution and good governance. {C}ountries should be encouraged to adopt legislation to maintain or even promote the mobility of herding activities.},
