The scientific study and detailed description of grasses, their species, characteristics, distribution, and ecological roles.
From Greek agrostis (grass) + graphia (writing/description). This specialized botanical term emerged in the 18th-19th centuries as systematic study of plants developed.
Agrostography might sound like one of the least important sciences, but understanding grass genetics is now crucial for fighting hunger and climate change in a world with 8 billion people.
