The inadequate soil management, combined with low soil fertility, is one of the limiting factors in cattle production in tropical regions. In the second half of 2009, the experimental area of the IFES of Santa Teresa, Espírito Santo state, Brazil, was analyzed for forage yield in three soil management systems to determine their influence on dry matter yield. The experiment was installed sub-split-plot randomized block design with four replications. The soil management, the period and the interaction between period and forage crop showed significant (p < 0. 05) difference regarding dry matter yield and leaf area index. However soil management interaction with forage crop was not significant. The management systems influenced dry matter yield, independent of the forage crop, with the conventional preparation having the most yields.Downloads
