Deals with the grasses of the region in Argentina.
Stopping to contemplate the pastures in the Cordoba mountains allows us to delight in beautiful images and discover a diversity of shapes, sizes, colours and textures in a more pleasant way than in a library. However, when we want to know more about them, we inevitably need to turn to books.
The book Pastos Posfuego de las Sierras de Córdoba (Post-fire Grasslands of the Cordoba Mountains) aims to bring the world of grasslands closer to anyone interested in this subject, such as professionals and students of agricultural and biological sciences, livestock producers, conservationists, environmentalists, secondary and primary school students, gardeners, government officials, mountain dwellers and the general public. This edition emphasises the grasses that frequent our vulnerable mountain environments after fires. It is a book written in simple language and featuring a variety of beautiful images that combine rigorous scientific knowledge with straightforward interpretation. It should be read with an open mind and eyes, ready to embrace the wonderful experience of learning about a part of our flora that colours the green cover of the Cordoba soil.
