Summary: Grazing height is an important framework to reach maximum animal and grains production and has being used in many sustainable grazing systems. It?s important to know about grazing management on integrated systems to maximize the sy stem use. The objective of this work was to evaluate the animal production on BRS Piatã and BRS Paiaguás (Brachiaria brizantha) swards submitted at two grazing heights on integrated crop pasture system. The experimental design was randomized blocks with factorial arrange ment. Brachiaria brizantha cvs. BRS Piatã and Paiaguás were established after soybean culture and managed at two grazing heights: 20 and 40 cm. After one year of grazing, soybean was established again and the production were considered as a result of integrated system. The experiment was developed from September 2014 to September 2015.
