Grassland and Agriculture

Map of Florida

These are upland communities where the predominant vegetative cover is very low growing grasses and forbs on intensively managed sites such as improved pastures, lawns, golf courses, road shoulders, cemeteries, or weedy, fallow agricultural fields, etc. This very early successional category includes all sites with herbaceous vegetation during the time period between bare ground, and the shrub and brush stage.
