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.

This work aimed to evaluate animal production and pasture variables with a management of levels of 350 and 600 kg/ha of green leaf lamina biomass (GLLB). Treatments were consisted of total forage mass of 617 and 1139 kg/ha of DM, respectively, lower than recommended levels for maximum animal performance. No differences were observed on total forage and green leaf blade daily accumulation rates, on total forage production, daily live weight gain, stocking rate and gain per area, which was near 430 kg/ha for both treatments. Forage on offer was different among treatments, being an average of 5.47 and 7.69 kg of DM/100 kg of live weight for 350 e 600 kg/ha of GLLB, respectively.
