In open level spaces with rare trees prevail strong winds. The necessary conditions of existence of grassy vegetation of this zone are grazing of large herd animals which liberate vegetative communities from the accumulated straw and destroy bushes. The bulk of the plant grass mass is concentrated underground. The powerful root system allows it to accumulate nutrients and moisture. Herding animals stimulate the regeneration of vegetation.
