Trisetum flavescens, the yellow oatgrass[1] or golden oat grass, is a species of grass in the family Poaceae. It is native to Europe, Asia, and North Africa.

It can be found elsewhere, such as sections of North America, where it was introduced as a rangeland grass for grazing.[2] It now exists in the wild as a common weed.
