Integrated Irrigated Crop–Livestock Systems in Dry Climates
Agronomy Journal, 2007Arid and semiarid landscapes are often fragile and, thus, vulnerable to both natural weather extremes and human activities. Climate change and increasing demands for food to meet needs of a growing global population will place greater stress on these environments.

Integrated crop–livestock systems in the Brazilian subtropics
European Journal of Agronomy, 2014Abstract In the subtropical region of Brazil, integrated crop–livestock systems (ICLSs) are characterized by the annual rotation of pastures and crops in a no-till system where the pasture component is used to produce either meat or milk. These systems focus on integration within the farm rather than between farms, being characterized by alternating ...

Integrated Crop–Livestock Farming Systems
2016In view of concerns regarding increasing regulation of concentrated animal feeding operations, long-term sustainability, natural resource degradation, and stability and profitability of farm income, there is a considerable interest in integrated farming systems.

Integrated Crop–Livestock Systems in the U.S. Corn Belt
Agronomy Journal, 2007Agricultural production systems in North America have become increasingly specialized. The lack of diversification has had negative economic, biological, and environmental consequences. One alternative approach to diversify agricultural production is to integrate cash grain cropping with ruminant livestock production.

Crop-livestock integration in Brazilian lands
Integrated agricultural production systems (SIPA's) consist of growing grain-producing crops with forage crops in the same area, in rotation, succession or intercropping. These systems, in addition to diversifying agricultural production, promote efficiency and sustainability in rural production, benefiting crops and livestock, are more sustainable ...Deise Dalazen Castagnara +11 more

Integrated Crop–Livestock Systems in the Southeastern USA
Agronomy Journal, 2007Opportunities to integrate crops and livestock are abundant throughout the southeastern USA due to a mild climate and a rich natural resource base that can produce different crops throughout the year. Although not currently common, integration of forage and grazing animals with cropping systems could benefit both production and environmental goals ...

Phytonematodes in Integrated Crop-livestock Systems of Tropical Regions
Journal of Experimental Agriculture International, 2019The integrated crop-livestock system (ICLS) is a model of sustainable cultivation that allows the recovery of degraded pastures and the intensification in pasture and grain production. However, the presence of pathogens in the production fields has hampered the employment of these systems.

Animal and Forage Performance of Integrated Crop-Livestock Systems
XXV International Grassland Congress (IGC 2023), 2023Grazing of cool-season cover crops has been shown to be a viable tool for extending the grazing season while mitigating environmental risks associated with row-crop farming systems. Grazing cover crops is not novel, but most recent information available on this practice focuses on soil health as opposed to forage production and animal performance ...
