The livestock sector is crucial for global food security and economic development, particularly in developing nations, as it supports the livelihoods of approximately 1.3 billion people. However, with population expected to reach 9.2 by 2050, must address increasing demand products while ensuring environmental sustainability. This study used available literature evaluate viability sustainable pasture rangeland management practices enhance production. key findings demonstrate that strategies such rotational grazing nitrogen fertilization can decrease winter feed costs up 40% simultaneously improving productivity animal weight gains. Initial investments these improved forage offer high internal rates return, indicating their profitability. To guide production management, we propose a conceptual framework balances cultivated pastures natural rangelands. assesses critical factors, including input costs, outputs (enhanced biodiversity production), interventions mitigate land degradation. For successful adoption practices, targeted policies are essential. Governments should develop financial support mechanisms smallholder farmers, improve transportation infrastructure efficient logistics, provide technical assistance educate producers on practices. Engaging stakeholders align local needs also vital. By implementing strategic interventions, resilience systems be strengthened, contributing long-term sustainability supporting rural community well-being.
