The aim of this study was to assess the process and extent of sedentarisation among Fulani cattle owners in the derived … savannah zone of south-west Nigeria. The results, based on a survey of 66 randomly-selected cattle owners, indicate an on …-going process of settlement. Previously cattle owners visited the zone for dry season grazing but an increasing number were found to …
