Summary: In agroforestry systems the forest arrangement is a very important factor to consider, since it determines the availability of light for the forage plant. So the production of fodder is not only influence on the under the canopy of trees, but on all its sub-forest. The knowledge of this effect is important in the planning of agroforestry systems, this work aimedto evaluate the effects of shading on the forage mass production of Brachiaria brizantha cv. BRS Piatã and to identify the average distance between the tree ridges, in which the best use of shading occurs, in different densities of trees.
