The habitat of the savannah favours farming and breeding and this is why it has been remarkably altered. The people living in this biome are mainly farmers who grow cereals and other plants that can resist long dry spells, such as millet, sorghum, barley and wheat, as well as peanuts, cotton, rice and sugarcane, while breeding prevails in drier savannah areas.
The savannah is also very important for birds, whose survival depends on migrations to avoid the harsh winters of temperate areas. The wildlife sanctuaries of the savannah are indispensable for the protection of dying species and for scientific and ethological research in a wild environment. An important human activity related to the savannah certainly is tourism: the savannah and in particular the wildlife sanctuaries offer the opportunity to observe, film and take pictures of an exotic and particularly fascinating nature, thus becoming an important attraction for tourists and enthusiasts.
