Bearing, producing, or yielding grass; characterized by the production or growth of grass.
From Latin 'gramen' (grass) plus 'ferre' (to bear or carry). The suffix '-ferous' indicates something that produces or contains the named substance.
Fertile prairies and pastures are graminiferous—they're literally 'grass-bearing' lands, which is why they're perfect for raising livestock and why prairie soil is so rich for farming!
