A farmer in western Minnesota is retiring. He wants to stop farming his 3,000 acres and turn the land into a prairie. He begins to plant grasses that are native to a short-grass prairie. Is this a good or bad idea?
Question 9 options:
A)
It is a good idea because we need more short-grass prairie in Minnesota
B)
It is a good idea because prairie land is good for animal habitats and migrations
C)
It is a bad idea because he won't be able to afford the restoration
D)
It is a bad idea because Minnesota has never had a naturally occurring short-grass prairie; only tall-grass prairies exist here.
