Silvopastoral systems may be an option to prevent grassland degradation because of the potential to control erosion and the ability of some tree species to add nitrogen and other nutrients to pasture, improving soil fertility. In view of this potential, in-depth evaluations of the soil and plant components of these systems are critical. The objective of this project was to verify the effect of trees on soil quality (fertility, biomass and microbial activity) and to evaluate the dry matter produc
