    Lawns were easily maintained by the livestock that simply ate the grass. What we are doing now is a facimile of that by wasting energy to pretend sheep live nearby.

    Do you have livestock? By all means have a lawn, it makes sense!

      Depends on the livestock. Some are top grazers like cows and other eat all the way to the base like sheep (this one can kill the grass)
