Abstract:O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a estrutura do dossel, em pastagens de Brachiaria brizantha cultivar Marandu submetidas a quatro ofertas de lâminas foliares. A espécie forrageira foi semeada em janeiro de 2001, na área experimental da Embrapa Agropecuária Oeste, Dourados, MS, e as pastagens foram submetidas às ofertas de forragem de 4, 8, 12 e 16% (quilogramas de lâminas foliares verdes por 100 kg de peso vivo por dia). O delineamento experimental foi o de blocos ao acaso, com duas repetições. As unidade… Show more
“…As previously observed for other tropical grass pastures (Machado et al, 2007), forage mass increased linearly with increased levels of forage allowance (Table 1).…”
-The objective of the present experiment was to evaluate the effect of forage allowance (3, 6 or 9 kg of green leaves dry matter (DM)/100 kg of body weight (BW)) on both animal performance and attributes of Cynodon dactylon var.dactylon canopy managed under continuous stocking by wethers. The study was carried out with 27 Polwarth wethers throughout five 28-day periods, in a completely randomized experiment, which included three paddocks per treatment and three tester animals per paddock. Forage mass varied from 2878 to 6580 kg of DM/ha and was directly related to forage allowance. Leaves proportion (mean of 23%) and leaves growth rate (mean of 25 kg of DM/ha/day) varied between experimental periods in a similar rate for all treatments. Stocking rate varied from 652 to 2428 kg of LW/ha/day and was higher for the lowest forage allowance treatment. Individual BW gain (mean of 9.7 g/day) or gain per area (mean of 406 g/ha/day) were only affected by experimental periods. Forage intake was neither affected by treatments nor by periods (mean of 1042 g of DM/day). Cynodon dactylon var. dactylon pasture may be managed under continuous stocking by grazing wethers at forage allowances varying from 3 to 9 kg of green leaves dry matter/100 kg of BW without effects on canopy attributes or animal production.

“…Corroborando a essa afirmativa, Machado et al (2007) observaram que, em rotação lavoura-pastagem com média de três anos, havia de 5 a 10 t ha -1 de matéria seca de raízes de u. brizantha, na camada de 0-0,20 m de solo, dependendo do manejo imposto. Santos et al (2007) e Sarmento et al (2008) constataram que mais da metade da massa de raízes de espécies de braquiária e de colonião concentra-se na camada de 0-0,10 m do solo.…”
resumo em sistemas de produção como a integração lavoura-pecuária (ilP) em sistema plantio direto (sPd) têm sido observadas melhorias nos atributos químicos, físicos e biológicos do solo. sendo assim, objetivou-se avaliar as alterações nos atributos químicos e físicos do solo e o acúmulo de carbono (C) num Latossolo Vermelho distrófico típico argiloso utilizado em sistema de ilP em sPd com irrigação, no cerrado. o delineamento experimental utilizado foi de blocos casualizados, com quatro repetições. os tratamentos foram dispostos em parcelas subdivididas no tempo, e as parcelas experimentais foram compostas pelas culturas do milho e do sorgo forrageiro cultivadas exclusivamente ou consorciadas com as espécies forrageiras Urochloa brizantha cv. Xaraés e Megathyrsus maximum cv. tanzânia para ensilagem; pelas espécies forrageiras no período de entressafra; e pela cultura da soja em sucessão.

“…Para isso alguns autores têm utilizado a manipulação da pastagem em diferentes alturas (CECATO et al, 2001;CANO et al, 2004) ou diferentes ofertas de lâminas foliares verdes (BARBOSA et al, 2006;MACHADO et al, 2007).…”
