pasturelands
Where livestock graze
Pasturelands are areas of land covered with grass or other vegetation suitable for grazing livestock.
The term appears in agricultural, environmental, and policy contexts: The ranch includes three thousand acres of pasturelands.
Unlike cultivated cropland, pasturelands are maintained primarily for animals to feed on directly.
