Do you know Allan Savory's work? He has shown that nature-simulating grazing herds are absolutely vital for plants and presenting the desertification. Without herds AND without chemical fertilizers [another part of the plan[, this means the land will become useless even for arable farming too. https://www.ted.com/talks/allan_savory_how_to_fight_desertification_and_reverse_climate_change . Also there is something about they are wanting the land to build a supercity for the neo-peasants to live in this area.

Regenerative Agriculture, including diverse multi-species cover crops, and the correct use of grazing animals, sequesters both carbon and nitrogen from the atmosphere into the soil. This also increases water infiltration into the soil.

Cows are really important for the environment in fact, something that the urban city dwellers don't seem to have a clue about as they order their overpriced latte at some hipster coffee shop.
