The Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia (RBZ) is a publication dedicated to the broad field of Animal Science. We publish high-quality, original scientific research that spans across diverse areas within the discipline. The scope of RBZ encompasses a wide range of topics, including aquaculture, biometeorology and animal welfare, forage crops and grasslands, animal and forage plants breeding and genetics, animal reproduction, ruminant and non-ruminant nutrition, meat science and muscle biology, precision livestock, and animal production systems and agribusiness.

The study was carried out in the county of Astorga, PR, Brazil, in the Nossa Senhora de Aparecida farm. The objective was to study the sward characteristics and forage accumulation of tanzania grass, deferred and after grazed from 07/23 to 09/18/1999, under different sward height levels. The experimental design was a completely randommized, with two replications. The treatments were four levels of sward height: T1=20, T2=40, T3=60 and T4=80 cm. However, the true sward height levels were used for analysis statistics; T1R1=26,3, T1R2=24,6, T2R1=47,9, T2R2=42,5, T3R1=55,8, T3R2=61,7, T4R1=69,2 e T4R2=71,4 cm. Results indicate that: forage mass and green culm mass increased of the positive linear way with increased of sward height. There was no effect of sward height levels on the forage accumulation.
