O trabalho objetivou avaliar a producao total de uma area de pastagem nativa, com queima anual e bienal, com e sem pastejo, atraves de exclusoes, no periodo de agosto97 a julho99. O delineamento experimental foi o de blocos complementares casualizados, com quatro tratamentos e tres repeticoes. A analise de variancia da producao total mostrou que nao houve diferenca estatistica entre os tratamentos. A especie Elyonurus musticus foi efetada pelos tratamentos.
