Abstract

For adequate livestock development, there must be a point of balance between animal production and environmental services. The objective of the study was to carry out agronomic evaluations in four silvopastoral systems (SSP). To do this, 16 ha of pastures were installed (pasture system alone with Brachiaria brizanta; plant succession management system; pasture system with shrub legumes; and systems such as energy and protein banks) in a tropical dry forest ecosystem in the San Martín region, Peru, in a period of five months. The result of the agronomic evaluations showed that the behavior of the introduced forage species, both grasses used as cover and cut grass, as well as shrubby legumes used as living fences; the nutritional evaluation in terms of dry matter (DM), neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and total protein, carried out 120 days after sowing, did not find significant differences (p<0.05), in the SSP with coverage of Brachiaria brizantha, showing that at this age of the pastures effects of the four different systems evaluated are not yet observed; in the forage species introduced in the SSP, a great variability was found in the nutritional indices evaluated.
