Forestry and animal husbandry in Tajikistan
Animal husbandry, in compliance with established standards, does not serve as a serious obstacle to the development of the forestry sector. In the summer of 1970, I surveyed the lands on the Hazratisho ridge (the valleys of the Iokunzh, Obi-Ravnow rivers, the Dashti-Jum tract, etc.), through which cattle are driven to summer pastures. The number of wild animals, even such as the bear, wild boar, and Siberian ibex, was high everywhere.
The leading species of hunting and commercial animals of the second zone are wild boar, Siberian ibex, fox, stone marten, red marmot, badger, porcupine; birds: keklik, blue pigeon. Licensed shooting of bears, urials, and dark-bellied ulars is possible.
In this area, the number of hornbills and leopards should be under special control. Snow leopard trapping on a limited scale is acceptable.
The third zone includes the territories most developed by humans: the low mountains, valleys of northern Tajikistan and the southwestern part of the republic. The population density in these areas reaches 50-100 or more inhabitants per 1 km2. The scale of industrial and agricultural development of the territories is high, the leading branch of agriculture is cotton farming. Over the past 30-40 years, cotton plantations have reclaimed large areas from tugai vegetation. This has reduced the ranges of Bukhara deer, pheasant, reed cat, and jackal. Currently, the distribution area of these species is represented by a narrow strip along the Panj River and the lower reaches of the Kafirnigen, Vakhsh and Kyzyl-Su rivers. Overgrazing of livestock in wintering areas has a negative effect on the wild fauna of the low mountains of southwestern Tajikistan.
In conditions of intensive economic development of territories, the hunting direction acquires other tasks. First of all, it should ensure the protection of representatives of wild fauna and the sporting and aesthetic needs of the population. The higher the level of human exploitation of the territory, the more highly cultured the hunting management system should be.
The restoration of strips of tugai vegetation along irrigation systems, the organization of hunting reserves, the re-climatization of a number of species and much more will contribute to the development of a network of associated sports and hunting farms.
Currently, limited sport hunting for waterfowl, keklik, and blue pigeon is possible in the third zone. At the same time, we will allow fishing for foxes, porcupines and licensed shooting of wild boar. The species subject to strict protection should include jeyran, urial, Siberian ibex, Bukhara deer and pheasant.
Only the organized use of hunting fauna will contribute, on the one hand, to its preservation, and on the other hand, it will allow for a certain economic effect. The latter is important, since many consider the hunting industry at the level of a "dependent", and therefore it is not given sufficient attention. The best bonuses from reliable bookmakers for you!
