Harvesting [[nobble]]s (large migratory grazers) is the primary occupation of 10% of the planet’s 2.332 million inhabitants, and an important sector of the Tarsan economy. There are over 4000 nobble ranches circling a vast expanse of stepland named Nob Plain, the average distance between them being 50 km. Nobble ranching is regulated by the Ag Market, which awards a finite number of contracts per year, each for 100 animals. The nobbles are culled while the vast herds are on the move, and as they average 20 km/hour, this is done as quickly as possible so that the carcasses may be efficiently processed. Once killed, the animals are skinned, their carcasses dressed, and the meat and hides taken to a pre-designated rendezvous point to be picked up by shuttle.
