Ulleksa [173]

Answer is;

This is because the grass is the main producer in a habitat. Its plentifulness directly influences that of the consumers up the food web. Increase in grass population means reduced competition for primary consumers and their population will therefore increase. This will also reduce competition for secondary consumers and tertiary consumers up the chain.
