Correct pasture management associated with the adjustment of grazing intensity determines
pasture persistence and the level of production per animal and per land area. The objective …

To meet the global demand for animal protein, sustainable intensification of existing
livestock systems may be possible, especially through integration of livestock with crops or …

This study aimed to assess the influence of the high biodiversity silvopastoral system
(SPSnu) on the microclimate, pasture production, and pasture chemical composition …

New forage cultivars require defoliation studies for recommending proper grazing
management. Our objective was to characterize herbage accumulation (HA), plant‐part …

This study aimed to evaluate the forage mass and nutritional value (NV) of Guinea Massai
grass (Megathyrsus maximus× Megathyrsus infestum) in an open pasture (OP) or the …

The objective was to evaluate the protein and carbohydrate fractionation of forage plants of
the Urochloa spp. and Megathyrsus maximus after intercropping with soybean in crop …

Although Brachiaria spp. grasses are important components of sustainable forage–livestock
systems in the Amazon biome, cultivar diversification is needed to reduce risk from pests …

Pastures represent the main land use type in Brazil and are used for livestock production
and maintenance of land ownership. Most pasture areas exhibit signs of degradation related …

This study hypothesized that urea fertilization could optimize animal performance in an
agroforestry system. This study evaluated how increasing rates of N fertilization (0, 100, 200 …

Grazing practices affect the soil and vegetation of grasslands, which further influence the
provision of ecosystem services and the productivity of grasslands. We determined the …
