A pasture is an area of land primarily vegetated by grass plus other non-woody plants, mainly used for grazing animals and not so much for cutting hay.

How to map

Draw a way around the area of the meadow and add landuse=meadow + meadow=pasture.

The type of animals can be tagged with animal=*, e.g. animal=sheep.
