The phrase "a sedentary system" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to describe a system characterized by inactivity or lack of movement, often in contexts related to health, lifestyle, or technology.
Example: "The study focused on the effects of a sedentary system on overall health and well-being."
Alternatives: "an inactive system" or "a stationary system".
As a result of these events, a more sedentary system was established, wherein animals were kept in enclosures and supplemented with harvested feeds to increase their productivity.
In most of the Southwest, the Archaic lifestyle was transformed to a more sedentary system supported by food production soon after 1700 bp.
However, the highest concentrations were recorded in the animal carcasses from the sedentary system (0.773 μg/g).
Therefore, the agro-geographical factors that predisposed to the visualized high sero-geospatial CBPP burden in the nomadic production system were due to its more extensive nature of husbandry practices compared to the sedentary system.
We also found out that the number of transhumant cattle (31.25%) whose carcasses were contaminated with antibiotic residues (penicillin G and oxytetracycline) was significantly higher than those resulting from the sedentary system (19.35%).
The higher CBPP sero-geospatial burden in the nomadic system than in the sedentary system is in consonance with previous findings that burden of CBPP varies according to the cattle management system and tends to be higher in more extensive cattle husbandry systems (Windsor 2000).
A semi-sedentary system of livestock production is the common practice where small herds are left at home for milking and for other domestic needs while the remaining herds are kept in strategic movements between landscapes, to opportunistically use available resources.
Cattle constitute the main species of livestock kept in four systems that can be broadly categorised as (1) alpine transhumant yak pastoral system, (2) cattle-based TAP, (3) cattle-based local transhumance in a mixed system and (4) cattle in a sedentary mixed farming system found in most villages as well as in peri-urban areas.
The nomadic pastoral system maintains mobile, large-scale livestock movement and avoids heavy grazing pressure on grasslands as opposed to the semi-nomadic and sedentary systems (Groom and Western 2013; Western et al. 2009).
