| Research Abstract |
The wise use of wetland's management which has been transmitted from generation to generation by local residents was turned up, and its availability was verified scientifically. In South Pantanal of Brazil, people had poured water from arrombado (natural levee crevasse) into inland farms during the rainy season, and had closed arrombado to drain the land in the dry season when river is down, to prevent the plant succession from grassland to forest caused by invading arboreous plants. These wise uses of wetland's management remain the cornerstone for the maintenance and the creation of quality natural grassland.
