The taiga biome receives only about 50 cm of rain each year, but it has a longer growing season than the tundra. Temperate grasslands receive between 25 to 75 cm of precipitation per year, which is considered a moderate amount of rainfall. The tropical rain forest biome receives the most rainfall per year, with an average of 200 to 450 cm of rain each year.
