Mature cereals drop 1 dry grass when harvested, to represent their stem being a useful byproduct.

Flax already drops flax fiber so only rye/spelt/rice drop dry grass.

Oh I didn't think of wild crops but it makes sense. They just follow the drops of the domesticated variant with a <1 multiplier.

One small problem you might have, and it's due to the game and not to the mod, is that you won't get a guaranteed 1 grass because of the multiplier. There is no way to ensure a minimum of 1. You might have noticed that with mature wild pineapple not dropping 1 pineapple / low weight salmon not dropping 1 filet.

I noticed that even wild cereal crops drop grass, as well! That was a pleasant surprise. This really does help make gathering grass for pit kilns and animal feed that little bit easier, and I appreciate it.

That's a really, really good idea for a mod. 👍
