The experimental design was completely randomized, with treatments corresponding to four sward heights with two replicates over time and space. Collected data were related to the forage-intake process and the chemical and morphological composition of the pasture. Grazing trials (45 min) were performed with four Anglo-Nubian crossbred goats. Total forage mass intake, bite mass, and intake rate were expressed in relation to animal weight. Pasture density, forage mass, and leaf blade increased as forage height increased.  aCaprino  aIngestão  aPastagem  aMassa de mordida1 aOLIVEIRA, M. E. de1 aLEAL, T. M.1 aMOURA, R. L. de1 aARAÚJO, D.
