Descripción
The integrated crop-livestock-forest system (ICLFS) is a rational way of use and manage natural resources. It integrates trees, field crops and animals in a scientifically way, being ecologically desirable, operationally feasible and socially acceptable by farmers (Macedo et al., 2010; Balbino et al., 2011; Pacheco et al., 2013). It enables several benefits through ecological and economic interactions resulting from intercropping different species (Macedo et al., 2010). In this sense, a combination consisting of soybeans, corn, eucalyptus, brachiaria grass and beef cattle has been tested in an ICLFS in Southern Goiás state. This paper presents technical coefficients of the tree or animal components, because they represent economic activities that last longer in the system, in order to support decision making on ICLFS for potential future adopters, based on a six years’ experience.
