EFG T7.2 Sown pastures and fields – current maps
T7. Intensive land-use biome
This page provides information about the valid indicative distribution map for the ecosystem functional group T7.2 Sown pastures and fields. For older or alternative maps, see here.
Methods
Here is the methods summary for Map code and version: T7.2.web.map v1.0.
The presence of sown pastures was approximated by selecting areas of overlap between existing irrigation infrastructure (Siebert et al. 2005; 2013) and presence of major livestock (Gilbert et al. 2018).
