In order to increase its revenue, the British introduced the Grazing Act. Pastoralists had to pay a tax on every animal they grazed in pastures. In course of time, the collection system was made very efficient. The right to collect taxes was auctioned out to contractor who tried to extract a tax as high as possible in order to earn profit. By the 1880's the government began to collect taxes directly from the Pastoralists. Each of them was given a pass. To enter a grazing area, the pass had to be shown and the tax paid.
