Corn and soybean yield in the integrated crop-livestock system in the Cerrado, Maranhão Eastern Region.

The Cerrado of the East region in Maranhão state is located in the agricultural expansion area called MATOPIBA where soybeans production has grown on a large scale. This region requires special care in the management and conservation of soils, including crop rotation and no-tillage system, due to characteristics of soil and climate. The Integrated Crop-Livestock System (ICLS) has been introduced to facilitate the management of soil in rotation with corn and grazing and to improve soil coverage during the period between harvests. This system also allowed the introduction of the animal component, diversifying farm production.
