I'd have to see the land IRL to make a firm decision, but something
more productive/useful than just lawn. Sheldon has since posted that
the lawn is for the wildlife, but IMO if you wanted to go that route,
you could plant a mixture of things, rather than just 'lawn'. The
first thing that occurred to me was pasture for sheep or deer, but
then I raise sheep, so that's only natural.

I've never been a fan of large tracts of monocultured lawn, even from
an aesthetic POV <shrug>.
