Abstract
This study tests the effectiveness of a music-based counselling intervention that was digitally recorded on 470
herdsmen in Nigeria. The study was a quasi-experiment with the questionnaire as the instrument for data
collection. The result of the study showed that the intervention was effective because respondents in the
treatment group scored higher regarding the acceptance of ranching, had more positive intention towards cattle
ranching, and more readiness to address challenges that come with cattle ranching than their counterparts in
the control group. The researchers highlighted the theoretical and practical implications of the results
