What is another word for ricegrass?
Pronunciation: [ɹˈa͡ɪsɡɹas] (IPA) 
Ricegrass, a term commonly used for grasses in the genus Oryzopsis, can also be referred to as mountain ricegrass, Indian ricegrass, or inland ricegrass. These grasses are native to North America and are commonly found in arid or semi-arid regions. They have dense roots, which help them thrive in nutrient-poor soils and low water conditions. Indian ricegrass is used in re-vegetation efforts to address soil erosion and mitigate the effects of wildfires, as it has a high resistance to both. While ricegrass may not be a household name, its adaptability and usefulness in environmental conservation make it a valuable resource to keep in mind.
