Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Raikas in Rajasthan combines cultivation and Pastoralism as their livelihood.
Raikas live in the desert of Rajasthan. Due to Rajasthan's low and uncertain rainfall, the Raikas find farming their land very difficult. As a result, their harvest fluctuates each year. In large areas, not a single crop can be grown. Thus, the Raikas combined cultivation with Pastoralism.

In October, when these grasslands become dry and exhausted, the Raikas leave, searching for other pastures and water.
