Abstract
The use of pastures with the association of grasses and forage legumes can contribute to the sustainability of animal production systems. The objective of this study is to evaluate the responses of plants of Marandu Palisadegrass mixed with the legume Macrotyloma axillare (access NO 279) subjected to rotational grazing. Treatments correspond to the combination of two pre-grazing condition…

Abstract
Ruminants can directly contribute to increasing the concentration of atmospheric CH4 through enteric fermentation and fermentation of organic residues, resulting not only in environmental problems, but also in factors related to the loss of efficiency in animal productivity. The use of more efficient systems, such as the consortium, has been used to manipulate ruminal fermentation and red…
Effect of the grass and legume intercropping on short chain fatty acids and methane production in cattle, BP.IC
Abstract
The use of grasses associated to forage legumes may contribute to the sustainability of ruminant production in pastures, and it is a practice that fits well in most predominant scenario of the Brazilian production system. It may also improve animal productive performance and reduce methane (CH4) emissions from the sector. The aim of this study is to evaluate the CH4 emission of cattle fed…
