Resumen
Descripción
The Crop-Livestock-Forest Integration Systems (CLFIS) emerge like a sustainable form to elevate the potential of agricultural productivity and, at same time, to protect the water and soil. Besides that, CLFIS amplify the nutritional cycle of soil nutrients, supply thermal comfort to the animals and, with this, reduce the production costs. Because of a relatively new activity, few studies was realized in relation to abundance of macro, meso and microfauna and the populations dynamics in CLFIS, that are important items to an adequate pest management, because, especially the insects, can damage the forest and agricultural components, reducing the efficacy of the system. The aim of this study was to identify the ants presents in different soil strata present in the CLFIS.
