ABSTRACT Animal excreta represent one of the primary pathways for nutrient return to pastures. We investigated the spatial distribution pattern of dung pads during seven grazing cycles over two years and the nutrient concentration in forage and cattle dung in different systems in a subhumid tropical region. The treatments were: (I) brachiaria grass (Brachiaria decumbens syn. Urochloa decumbens Stapf R. D. Webster) + gliricidia (Gliricidia sepium (Jacq.) Kunth ex. Walp.; B+G); (II) brachiaria grass + sabia (Mimosa caesalpiniifolia Benth.; B+S); […]
