Western USA
Grasses are adapted to a wide range of edaphic and climatic conditions and are found in nearly all plant communities. In the Western United States, grasses are seeded on disturbances to provide forage, wildlife habitat, and watershed stability. A number of introduced grass species proved well-suited to Western rangelands and received extensive use in early reseeding efforts. Use of thes and other introductions continued oer time, but by the late 1900s, greater emphasis was being placed on the use of native grasses.
