Abstract
Integrated agricultural production systems (SIPA's) are systems where crop crops are carried out in an integrated manner, with grain and forage cultivation in the same area, in rotation, succession or intercropping, in addition to the presence of grazing animals. These systems, in addition to diversifying agricultural production, benefiting crops and livestock, are more sustainable, economically viable agricultural practices aimed at preserving soils. Integrated crop-livestock systems are based on the idea that livestock activity can contribute to the generation of organic waste, improvement of the physical and chemical characteristics of the soil, crop alternation, interruption of the cycle of plant diseases and reduction of losses caused by climate variability. In addition, although the benefits of the adoption of LPIS in lowlands are known, they are still incipient and need more research to produce more consistent technical recommendations.
