Grass Lands

Hamirpur have some stretches of grasslands, which used as pastures or grazing land'.Significant area of permanent pastures is not found anywhere in the districts, except in the southern portion of the district but according to State of Forest Report 2005 District have 1.6% Moderately dense forest and 2.6% open forest is Considered as grasslands .

generally the noncultivated land which produces grasses like doob (Cynodon dactylon),  and the kans (Saccharum spontaneum) turns to grass land.

Kail and mushial are found in black soil in plain areas.while kans (kansa), an invasive, perennial grass that grows up to three metres in height.does not have any significant area.It is particularly seen after a season of rainfall, and grows rapidly in poorly cultivated soils; it does not generally grow in fields continuously cultivated and carefully prepared for the wheat crop.

Its long and tenacious roots gain a firm hold with the soil and it becomes almost impossible to remove till 12 to 15 years, after which it loses its vitality and the land becomes fit to plough again.No permanent or sure remedy has been found to prevent appearance or growth of kans. The area under permanent pastures has been reducing rapidly, due to high livestock population and pressure to bring more area under cultivation.
