B.K. Simon & S.W.L. Jacobs) with the aim of diversifying the use of forages in pastu - res and intensifying animal production in Brazil. In 2015, cultivar BRS Tamani was commercially released in partnership with Unipasto (Association for the Promotion of Research in Forage Breeding). Cultivar BRS Tamani is a hybrid of P. maximum that meets the demand for a cultivar of short height, easy to manage and resis - tant to spittlebugs, such as cv. Massai, but with greater nutritive value. BRS Tamani was selected based on agronomic and morphological evaluations carried out at Embrapa Beef Cattle, with emphasis initially on its short height, abundance of tillers, forage yield, regrowth vigor, thin le- aves, forage nutritive value and resistan- ce to spittlebugs. In regional trials in the states of Acre, Rondônia, Mato Grosso do Sul, Rio de Janeiro, Rio Grande do Sul and the Federal District, cv. BRS Tamani showed high adaptation with good agro- nomic performance and forage yield in all evaluated sites, except on waterlogged soils. Under grazing in the Cerrado of the Federal District, the cultivar showed good establishment, high persistence, and high animal performance in the dry and rainy seasons of the year. This cultivar is easier to manage since its shorter size and higher proportion of leaves presents less fibrous and softer stems than the traditional tall cultivars. The lack of short high tillering cultivars with better animal performance than cultivar Massai and adapted to medium to high fertility soils and to shading and easier and flexible to manage under grazing make this cul- tivar an important alternative to diversify pasture areas in Brazil. This publication is in line with goals 1, 2, 3 and 8 of the sustainable development goals.  aForage grasses  aMegathyrsus maximus  aPastures  aBovinocultura  aGramínea Forrageira  aPanicum Maximum  aPastagem  aPlanta Forrageira  aProdução Animal  aBRS Tamani  aPastizales  aPastos forrajeros1 aSANTOS, M.
