In the 21st century, productivity gains from cattle raising could be aligned with more advanced environmental and social goals. Contrary to this logic, however, harmful effects have been associated with livestock systems, which leads to a clear need to minimize many of their negative impacts, such as deforestation, simplification of landscapes, loss of biodiversity and greenhouse gas emis…
More heterogeneous productive systems with greater biodiversity can help mitigate impacts of conventional agricultural activities and remain competitive in the market. In production of ruminants, properties can be reconfigured to be multifunctional, efficient in productivity and to generate less environmental impacts, by including forage species which perform animal welfare, health and nu…
The redesign of productive properties is a relatively new term. It consists of the reorganization of systems, which may or may not include new plants with specific objectives. Data from the literature demonstrate that the consortium of trees and pastures is a way to improve the attributes of the systems as a whole. The redesign of landscapes, in order to obtain greater multifunctionality,…
The advancement of productivity in cattle farming should be aligned with more defined environmental and social goals. However, livestock systems have been associated with several negative effects, such as deforestation, simplification of landscapes, loss of biodiversity and greenhouse gas emissions. Landscape redesign can contribute to more sustainable agricultural activities, integrating…
Redesigns of productive landscapes are designed to adopt environmentally friendly farming practices, to contribute to climate change mitigation and adaptation, and to maintain culturally important landscapes and farming and livestock practices. Assuming that modeling can be a relevant tool to address such systemic changes, we will seek to answer the following question: "How can livestock …
Heterogeneous production systems with greater biodiversity can mitigate the impacts of conventional agricultural activities and remain competitive in the market. In ruminant production, properties can be reconfigured to be multifunctional, efficient in productivity and thus generating less environmental impacts, including forage species that have animal welfare, health and nutrition funct…

Brazilian cattle breeding has great productive capacity and occupies extensive areas throughout the country, with significant economic and social importance. However, as throughout the world, in Brazil there has been increase in total production with decrease in the area used for cattle, thus increasing the intensification of management in productive areas, which necessarily leads to a gr…
