grazing lands
Where livestock feed
Grazing lands are areas where livestock feed on grass and other vegetation.
The term encompasses pastures, rangelands, and meadows used for cattle, sheep, or other grazing animals: The ranch includes thousands of acres of grazing lands.
Disputes over grazing lands—their ownership, access, and management—have shaped rural politics and land use policy.
