Abstract

In beef cattle production a viable alternative to reverse the process of pasture degradation and increase food availability for animals is the adoption of consortium between grasses and legumes. The objective of this study was evaluating the dry matter yield of andropogon grass in different ages intercropped with two species of legumes levels of phosphorus fertilization. The experimental design was a randomized block design in a factorial 2x4+1, being the main factor two species of legumes (Calopogonium mucunoides and Stylosanthes guianensis Campo Grande), the secondary factor, levels of phosphorus (0, 50, 100 , 200 kg ha^-1 P2O5) and an additional treatment not syndicated and without phosphorus, with 4 repetitions. The results show that the isolated application of phosphorus improved the biomass yield the andropogon grass in association with legumes, the consortium produced more total biomass than the monoculture and that the levels of P, Ca, Mg and CEC in the soil were greater andropogon grass intercropped with S. guianensis.
