This includes areas used for the production of annual crops, such as corn, soybeans, wheat, maize, vegetables, tobacco, cotton etc and also perennial grasses for grazing and woody crops such as orchards and vineyards. Crop vegetation accounts for greater than 20 percent of total vegetation. This class does not represent natural grasslands used for light to moderate grazing [Original source: (US Geological Survey et al.). (Di Gregorio and Jansen 2000)].",
