Pastureland is land covered in grass, used for cows, sheep, or horses to eat. It is a plain compound: it names the area of land, more than the grass itself. You hear it in geography, farming, and news — “the valley is mostly pastureland.” It is not a fancy word. Pasture, , and grazing land cover almost the same thing in everyday talk. Though actually, pasture can mean the grass, the field, or the feeding; pastureland keeps pointing at the land.
