| contents | Indicators associated to pastures sustainability: a review Pablo Andrés Motta-Delgado Hernán Eduardo Ocaña Martínez Erika Paola Rojas-Vargas Agrociencias livelihoods Agroforestry productivity sustainability livestock production Pastures are anthropogenic ecosystems that offer lowcost food resources mainly for feeding ruminants, being the base for production and livelihoods in many rural areas worldwide. Pasturebased production is important for the social, environmental and economic implications where sustainability plays a prominent role because it meets both the needs of present and future generations. The aims of this review article were the following: to show the progress and application of the sustainability concept focused on pastures, and to relate indicators for the measurement of pasture sustainability in the tropics. This article describes the sustainability, the indicators for sustainability, the pastures in the humid tropics of the Amazon region, the sustainability applied to pastures, and finally, provides indicators and metrics to evaluate sustaina-bility in pastures. In conclusion, a sustainable pasture must provide benefits to the soil, the plants, and the animals, as well as provide livelihoods to the family that manages the system through appropriate management practices that allow the resilience of the pasture system and the conservation or improvement of natural resources for present and future generations. 2019 artículo científico 0122-8706 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=449960477014 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4499/449960477014/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4499/449960477014/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4499/449960477014/449960477014.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4499/449960477014/movil https://doi.org/10.21930/rcta.vol20_num2_art:1464 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=4499 Ciencia y Tecnología Agropecuaria application/pdf Corporación Colombiana de Investigación Agropecuaria Ciencia y Tecnología Agropecuaria (Colombia) Num.2 Vol.20 |
