In Mongolian there are several forms related to "odar" which relate to remote pastures. They draw from Turkic and Slavic forms:
"The two forms otur in ancient Mongol and otor in Khalkha-Mongol stand for “cattle grazing on distant pastures; fresh spring grass; a pasture; cattle enclosing”. The word otor conveys the meaning “cattle grazing on distant pastures” in the languages of Inner Mongolia, including Chahar. The lexical unit otor is used in the meaning of “a summer stall; hunters’ lodge; a summer farm; a distant pasture” in the Kabansky dialect of the Buryat language. The word otor means “a fishers’ hut on the bank of Lake Baikal” in the Kudarinsky dialect of the Buryat language. The form otr [otăr] denotes “a distant place (about a pasture)” in Kalmyk. This Mongol word can be compared with the Turkic one otar (a pasture; a pasture which is far from a village; cattle grazing; a meadow; a farm; a flock). The Mongol form can vary from otar to otor, odar, odor and utar. E.V. Sevortyan has revealed its Turkic etymology and marked the Turkic root ot (grass) [1974, pp. 487-488]."
