Etymology
The term 'pasture' originates from the Old French word 'pastur', which in turn comes from the Latin 'pastor', meaning 'shepherd'. The word has been used in English since the late Middle Ages to describe land covered with grass or herbage suitable for grazing animals. Over the centuries, the concept of pasturing has evolved as agriculture developed, highlighting the importance of providing quality grazing for livestock. The practice not only ensures the health of the animals but also contributes to maintaining the ecosystem of the countryside.
