Resumo: ABSTRACT: During the last two decades, rotational grazing has been increasingly adopted in cattle farms in the Cerrado Region. However, many farmers and extensionists are still having problems in designing efficient pastoral systems based on rotational grazing. This paper briefly describes the basic concepts of this grazing method and provides key steps to be followed in planning pasture area and stocking rate in rotational grazing.
