About This Book

A practical identification guide to common grasses of the South Indian plains, presenting morphological descriptions of vegetative organs, inflorescences, floral structure, and internal anatomy, followed by a systematic classification and detailed species accounts of about one hundred widespread grasses. It treats major grass groups and genera with diagnostic characters, keys, and illustrations, offers notes on agricultural value, fodder potential, effects of overgrazing, and cultivation considerations, and concludes with a glossary and index to aid fieldworkers, students, and agricultural officers in recognising and managing grass species.
