The Southeastern Wisconsin Till Plains support a mosaic of vegetation types, representing a transition between the hardwood forests and oak savannas of the ecoregions to the west and the tallgrass prairies of the Central Corn Belt Plains (54) to the south. Like Ecoregion 54, land use in the Southeastern Wisconsin Till Plains is mostly cropland, but the crops are largely forage and feed grains to support dairy operations, rather than corn and soybeans for cash crops. The ecoregion has a higher plant hardiness value and a different mosaic of soils than ecoregions to the north and west.
