1) Location: Found in the middle of large land masses or continents. The two major areas are the prairies in North America and the steppe which straddles Europe and Asia. The majority of this biome is found between 40° and 60° north or south of the Equator.

2) The prairies are known as the 'Granaries of the world' due to the huge surplus of wheat production. Another main occupation of the people of the prairies is dairy farming.

3) A ranch is an area of land, including various structures, given primarily to the practice of ranching, the practice of raising grazing livestock such as cattle and sheep most often applies to livestock-raising operations in Mexico, the Western United States and Western Canada, though there are ranches in other areas.

4) In the US, the farmers use scientific techniques like soil testing etc. and grow multiple crops throughout the year. 6. The US farmlands give bigger returns to the farmer when compared to the Indian farmlands.

5) Because most of the grasslands have been cleared for agriculture by the people who came from Europe and settled here. Why are prairies so attractive for farming? Answer: Soil is very fertile and water is available in plenty. So the land of prairies is very good and attractive for farming.
