pasturage

On either side lay a stray, in pasturage, to which the poor people of the town had common rights.

Pasturage is found chiefly on the banks of the Aisne and Meuse and on the plateau of Rocroi in the north.

There is excellent grazing land and no lack of pasturage, but at present bears make fearful havoc among the cattle and sheep.

Considerable portions now devoted to pasturage are liable at times to suffer from drought.
