Pastoral farming (also known as grazing in some parts of the world) is farming related to livestock rather than growing crops and other fodder. The livestock usually graze on naturally-grown grass and other vegetation. Some pastoral farmers grow crops, but instead of selling the harvest, they feed it to livestock (cows, pigs, sheep etc.) so that they stay healthy for optimum production of meat, wool, milk and eggs.
