National Policy for Integrated Crop-Livestock-Forestry

Law enacted in 2013 (no. 12.805/2013) whose main objective is to improve, in a sustainable way, productivity, product quality and income from agricultural activities through the application of crop, livestock and forestry integration in already deforested areas, as an alternative to conventional monocultures (Brazil, 2013). It also extends the benefits provided by the agricultural policy (Law no. 8,171/91) (Brazil, 1991) to producers who adopt integration techniques of crops, livestock and forestry in rotary, successive and/or intercropped cultivation systems.
