I have to admit that I lost interest in this area so my writing just sits there and waits for someone to adopt it: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Imagic/landcover . The first section "When to use ..." would be the most important in your case. Therefore I would recommend landcover=grass in your case. If this area is also used to e.g. produce hay I would also use landuse=meadow.



+1 to everything, especially the "clearly separating" part
