Research on Integrated Crop-Livestock Systems in Brazil [PDF]
Revista Ciência Agronômica, 2014 Integrated crop-livestock systems (ICLS) are designed to exploit synergisms and emergent properties resulting from interactions between different soil-plant-animal-atmosphere compartments that integrate themselves at different spatial-temporal scales. In this review, a panorama of the evolution of studies based on ICLS is presented.

Potential benefits of tanniferous forages in integrative crop-livestock agroecosystems
Frontiers in Agronomy, 2022 Integrating livestock into cropping systems may enhance ecosystem services while still providing efficient food production. Including tanniferous forages in crop-livestock systems could further enhance ecosystem services. Interest in phytochemicals, such
