Answer
Taiga region is situated between 55°N to 70°N latitudes. In Southern Hemisphere, there is no landmass between 55° to 70°. Therefore, the Taiga region does not exist in the southern hemisphere.
Prairies are called the granaries of the world because most of the wheat produced in USA and Canada comes from this region.
