14 sacaton
Bentley: 1863.A southwestern plant ( Sporobolus wrightii) sometimes used as forage. The OED indicates that the term refers to various species of the genera Sporobolus and Epicampes. Santamaria glosses it as the common name of various wild grasses, including Muelembergia disticophylla and S. wrightii, used for making an industrial fiber. It generally grows in long, rigid rootstalks with leaves. In southeastern Mexico it is the primary vegetation on the plains or savannahs, where it grows as a shrub or in isolated groups of trees.Also called pajón (Mexico), bear grass (USA), it is commonly used as forage for cattle.Alternate forms: sacate, sacatone, zacaton. -
15 Spanish needle grass
Prairie porcupine grass ( Stipa spartia), not often used as forage because it is sharp and causes discomfort to the cattle. Alternate term: Spanish needle.
