We can keep a sustainable biome by using the naturally occurred grasslands and maintaining it by not overgrazing animals, overusing irrigation water, causing saline soils, changing from native vegetation to cropping and, over cropping soils. The biome is capable of producing crops that are a necessary food source for ruminant animals which provide meat, milk or milk products. Meat from cow, sheep and goat that where obtained from the grassland biome made up to 29% of the global meat supply in 2010. 

The grassland biome is used to supply he world with food sources. In this biome statistics show that the demand for milk and dairy products will increase by 22% in the next 10 years, means that funding for food production in this biome will not end. 

A major problem with this biome is that it may not be adaptable to climate change, the likelihood that this biome will not be affected is unknown. 

The food production in this biome can be changed to be more sustainable, this is attainable by: 

-Less grazing

-An increase of fertilization: Will dramatically help ensure the preservation of the soil

The amount of food that is being produced in grasslands around the world are causing changes to the biome. Most Australian livestock is produced on grass. Farming for food is the biggest cause of change in a grassland biome. Farming and farming practises are a big part that make changes to the grassland biome for the better or worse. The place that is most affected by bad choices are African grasslands. This is mostly due to there being a lack of education and a lack of resources in African grassland areas. 

The problems that farming in grasslands cause are the use of water, overgrazing, and bad farming practises such as row farming and over ploughing. Most native grasslands have been removed and cleared for crops. Introduced grasses have been added to the land and are used to feed grazing animals that live on the land. Overgrazing grasslands are the main cause in this biome becoming a desert. The soil can be used to host a wide selection of vegetables and crops, the land is perfect for livestock. Livestock constantly is at risk of overgrazing the grasslands. Animals are forced off their land. The planting of new crops in grasslands unbalance the nutrients in the soil. 

The main types of food produced in grasslands are all the major food grains corn, wheat, oats, barley, millet, rye and sorghum. The climate conditions and the surface of the ground in grasslands allow crops to grow. Other grasses have been planted for feeding animals.

Other ways that give people resources are:

·      Cattle for meat

·      Sheep for meat and wool

·      Cattle for milk

Farming is the major method in producing food Grasses often depend on fire to germinate and produce new plants. Plants in this biome are rain-fed but now due to climate change it is irrigated. There are different farms that produce different foods:

·      Wheat farms- grow wheat

·      Mixed farms- both grazing and cropping

·      Intensive farms- produces dairy

Plantation farming- produce coffee, sugar cane, cocoa, bananas, rubber, tobacco and
