Conteúdo: | The negative climate change effect on ruminant production is increasing the risk of food security. Therefore, the search for alternative forages able to provide high volume of biomass and nutritional qualities and also adapted to a poor soil and climate conditions are extremely necessary. In this context, the high tropical biodiversity is able to provide potential forages for ruminants as a pasture or even as a fodder bank. The promissory results of our work on the use of Tithonia diversifolia as feed for dairy and beef cattle in Brazil and Colombia are showing its potential to attend nutritional requirements for medium and high performance cows. In addition, these studies are in line with the guidelines advocated by Food Agriculture Organization (FAO) for the promotion of sustainable intensification of animal production in the tropical world.
