Abstract

The experiment was carried out from October, 1979 to November, 1980 at Posto Experimental de Brotas. It was used a mixed pasture (Kazungula setária + siratro) area sowed in January, 1979, where , it was studied four mechanized sowing systems ,and two sowing densities of the legume. It was measured the variation in botanical composition, under grazing, for each sowing systems, densities and also time of sampling. It wasn€™t verified significative differences among the populations. soil cover percentage and forage availability of setária and siratro on the different sowing systems and densities. However, it was observed a great variation in these parameters o function of the time of sampling. In relation to the crude protein concentration it was, during all the time, higher on the legume than on the grass, while the crude fiber concentration didn€™t differ in both plants.
