SUMMARY:Crop\, livestock\, and forestry integration to reconcile soil health\, food production\, and climate change mitigation in the Brazilian Cerrado: A review
DESCRIPTION:Integrated crop-livestock (ICL) and crop-livestock-forest (ICLF) systems have been widely adopted in the Brazilian Cerrado. Accordingly\, an enormous increase in the number of publications evaluating ICL and ICLF systems has been observed in the last decade. However\, to the best of our knowledge\, this information has never been analyzed together in a comprehensive way. Here\, we gathered the publications regarding the effects of ICL and ICLF systems on soil health\, plant and animal production\, and carbon (C) balance\, and then synthesized them in comparable terms\, aiming to evaluate the sustainability of these systems in a broader and comprehensive approach. Based on evidence from 65 peer-reviewed publications\, it was observed that adopting integrated systems can improve soil health in the Brazilian Cerrado. With a few exceptions\, positive effects on chemical\, physical\, and biological indicators of soil health were observed for most of the studies that compose our data. Accordingly\, results showed that ICL and ICLF systems can improve plant yield and animal production\, but special attention regarding the grazing regime and tree management (e.g.\, spacing\, pruning\, thinning) is required. Moreover\, the soil C accumulation fully offset soil N2O emissions\, underscoring the feasibility of ICL and ICLF systems for decreasing the C footprint of agricultural commodities in this region. The research assembled in this review has undoubtedly advanced our knowledge about integrated systems in the Brazilian Cerrado. However\, there are still significant knowledge gaps that should be addressed\, such as their effects on soil physics and biology. Despite these shortcomings\, our literature review demonstrates that ICL and ICLF systems are important strategies to intensify agricultural production in the Brazilian Cerrado while ensuring sustainability.
