The nomads of Kormanj have been engaged in animal husbandry in the northern regions of Greater Khorasan since the distant past. The word “Kormanj” refers to Kormanji-speaking nomads, or, in a more general sense, to Kurds who speak the Kormanji dialect. In addition to the cities of North Khorasan, 22 important tribes and 122 groups of this ethnicity live in Razavi Khorasan and Golestan provinces. (IRNA photos/Kormanj)
Livestock is the main source of income and livelihood of these people. Some are also engaged in farming and providing fodder for livestock in their pastures. The lack of sufficient water for livestock and the problem of providing water for the necessities of life and dealing with drought and providing educational facilities for the children of the nomads are among the problems they face.
