Vegetation and plant distribution in Indonesia are classified according to geological structure, altitude and climate. It showed that the meadow and pasture areas have decreased years by years. Grain and legume forage crops are not cultivated as a main plant in the field crops and the most are used as alternative that have been cultivated in marginal areas.
