Based on the experiments developed in northern of Mato Grosso with the planting of agroforestry systems, the potential of several native tree species in bovine nutrition was studied. Leaves and/or fruits were collected in the dry season of the year, and the results point to the great potential of the fruits of Samanea tubulosa and Chloroleucon acacioides.
