Popis: The objective of this research was to evaluate the forage production, crude protein and neutral detergent fiber level, stocking rate of three forage systems compounds for Coastcross-1 (Cynodon dactylon L. Pers.) + ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam., cv. Comum); Coastcross-1 + ryegrass + red clover (Trifolium pratense L., cv. Estanzuela 116) and Coastcross-1 + ryegrass + white clover (Trifolium repens L., cv. Yi). The experiment was carried out from April 2007 to April 2008, for 11 grazing cycles, six in winter season and five in summer season. Holstein cows receiving 0.9% of body weight/day feed supplement concentrate were used. The herbage mass of pre and post-grazing, botanical and morphological composition crude protein and neutral detergent fiber level were evaluated. A randomized complete design was used with three treatments (forage systems) two replications (paddocks) and independent evaluations (grazing cycles). Superior value (P
