SANCHEZ, Saray; HERNANDEZ, Marta  e  RUZ, F. Management alternatives of soil fertility in livestock production ecosystems. Pastos y Forrajes [online]. 2011, vol.34, n.4, pp. 375-392. ISSN 0864-0394.

In Cuba, due to soil degradation, integrated management is required to enhance their productive capacity in benefit of man and achieve sustainable development and the necessary food security. This situation demands that the professionals, technicians and people responsible for livestock production increase their knowledge related to the management and conservation of this resource, so that with their work balance can be achieved in the soil-plant-animal system, which allows improving the environment, achieving more ecological productions, and attaining higher economic and social benefits for the country. In this paper some results are shown generated in different scientific institutions regarding the use of adequate technologies of soil fertility management in agricultural and livestock production ecosystems, as well as the experiences of their introduction in productive practice in order to contribute to sustainable development and food security in Cuba.
