I'm thinking here you have a cow and have turn it out to pasture or want to. Green grass is best. As to the type of grass, for the simple answer. I'm lying, there is no simple answer, depending on what grows best in your area of the world. If i had a field that I was going to plant, I would go with a good mix. I like orchard grass, timothy grass, something that comes out when it is still a little cold maybe, with something that doesn't take too much water, with high protein. Personal preference is what to go with here how do you get to where you want to be. That is what is best.
