Savannah
Extensive open tropical grasslands, with scattered trees and shrubs. Savannahs cover large areas of Africa, North and South America, and northern Australia. The soil is acidic and sandy and generally considered suitable only as pasture for low-density grazing.
A new strain of rice suitable for savannah conditions was developed in 1992. It not only grew successfully under test conditions in Colombia but also improved pasture quality so that grazing numbers could be increased twentyfold.
