soil-holding
The basin is about five feet deep and is surrounded by gently mounded banks now covered by a planting of a hearty, ***soil-holding grass***.
http://www.fema.gov/mitigationbp/bestPracticeDetail.do?mitss...
Use your loader and scarifier or soil conditioner attachment to prepare hard soils for seeding a temporary or permanent cover of ***soil-holding grass*** or other vegetation.
http://www.bobcat.com/publicadmin/viewArticle.html?id=3973
After applying the manure as directed the farmer will be advised to reduce the slope by erecting bench terraces for every row and plant some ***soil holding grass*** species like Rhodes grass along the dividing edges but a metre or so from the stems.

Armorel Young
: Can you elaboraborate? To me robust means hardy or not readily affected by cold/drought, whereas bodenfest presumably means that the roots help to consolidate the ground

to prevent soil erosion

Planting trees for shade and grasses to prevent soil erosion

Reference:
Roots of Monocots
Monocots (all grasses) are by definition all comparably good at stabilising the soil around them because of their characteristic allhorize roots which stabilize the very top layer of the soil.
