Vulnerability of African mahogany to cattle predation in a silvipastural system
Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the incidence and intensity of damages caused by cattle to African mahogany (Khaya grandifoliola) and this species vulnerability in the silvipastural system. The trees were planted in single lines, in a 20x2 m arrangement. In the third year, cattl...

| description | Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the incidence and intensity of damages caused by cattle to African mahogany (Khaya grandifoliola) and this species vulnerability in the silvipastural system. The trees were planted in single lines, in a 20x2 m arrangement. In the third year, cattle were introduced in the area. Three classes of damage intensity were established: low, medium, and high. Damages to tree barks showed the highest incidence, followed by damages to wood. The species is vulnerable to bark chewing by cattle, with damages of medium and high intensities. |
