Region X receives an average annual rainfall of 1200 mm and has a mean annual temperature of 22 °C. It lies at an altitude of 1500 m. Potential evapotranspiration (PET) can be approximated by ( PET = 0.6 \times T \times (1 + 0.01 \times altitude) \) mm, where \(T\) is temperature in °C and altitude is in metres. The moisture index is defined as \( MI = \frac{Rainfall - PET}{PET} \). If \( MI > 0.2 \) the natural vegetation is classified as forest; if \(-0.2 \le MI \le 0.2\) as savanna; and if \( MI < -0.2\) as grassland. Determine the likely natural vegetation type for Region X.
