About this title

Synopsis

Integrated Agricultural Production Systems are becoming increasingly important, mainly due to the difficulties faced by livestock farmers in investing capital in reforming pastures, and by farmers in recovering the productive potential of crops, with regard to problems related to the reduction in the soil's organic matter content, the occurrence of pests, diseases, nematodes and weeds. In these systems, the use of pastures in the off-season can help to overcome these obstacles. Therefore, this research project aimed to determine the productivity and quality of forage sorghum silage in consortium with Urochloa brizantha cv. Marandu, Megathyrsus maximum cv. Mombaça and/or guandu-anão (Cajanus cajan); and the productivity and quality of pasture grass-marandu and grass-mombaça, after consortium with sorghum in the Integrated Agricultural Production System.
