%X the goal was to compare, in terms of dry matter productivity and carbon sequestration, a silvopastoral system with a traditional system in five foothill cattle farms in the department of casanare. a mixture of four species of grass was planted in the experimental plot of each farm, of which brachiaria brizantha was the species that had a successful development in the five farms, and whose dry matter and carbon sequestration productivity was analyzed. five months after pasture renovation in the experimental lots, a dry matter productivity between 6.3 and 14.9 tms/ha and carbon sequestration productivity between 2.7 and 6.4 tcot/ ha were obtained; in traditional lots, dry matter productivity was between 4 and 5 tms/ha, while carbon sequestration productivity was between 1.7 and 2.9 tcot/ha. at 20 months, dry matter productivity between 12 and 13.7 tms/ha, and carbon sequestration productivity between 4.1 and 4.5 tcot/ha were obtained in experimental lots, while in traditional lots, dry matter productivity was between 4.4 and 6.5 tms/ha, while carbon sequestration productivity was between 1.4 and 2.1 tcot/ha. this indicates that renewal of grasslands with suitable pastures and rotational grazing favor dry matter and carbon sequestration production.
