DE O.  aReply to emissions from cattle farming in Brazil.h[electronic resource]  c2016  aGoulert et al. make some interesting observations about the context of our study, its modelling assumptions and data. We clarify these issues but refute that our study is unrealistic or misleading. Indeed, we have been conservative with some assumptions and it would be possible and plausible to accentuate the counterintuitive result we present.In our reference to sustainable agricultural intensification (SAI) we note the contested nature of the concept and do not imply a comprehensive characterization of the term.  aBeef cattle  aModels  aModelo Matemático1 aBARIONI, L.
