Laurisca Grass

Laurisca Grass is the wild variant of the staple food crop used in the Primus Territory, Crescent Grain. The grass was first used by the Havanites in the early 100's when they realized that it grew and propagated much more readily than the crops they had brought with them to the region. For this reason it can be found almost anywhere, especially in damper, wetter environments such as the Bay of Telluride. Having an appearance similar to Wheat-Grasses grown in other regions, Laurisca Grass has the added benefit of being far more shelf stable as well as more easily digestible. If the need ever arose, one could simply pluck the grains from the stock and eat them. 
The first loaf of Leavenmeal was made using ground Laurisca grain, a bread that is to this day eaten as it was thousands of years ago. It cannot be stated enough how integral this crop is to the history of the Primus Territory.
