Core Ideas Land‐use for forage decreased in the three regions, but not at the country level. Naturalized land without cultural treatment represents the 88% of all forage land. Cultivated forages represented less than 3.6% of all forage use at the country level. Total forage area in the main grazing regions are being reduced over time.
