The system is being applied to improve land use by diversifying production outputs, restoring the quality of the soil and pastures, and contributing to cattle management by offering thermal comfort to the animals. Although farmers recognize the importance of trees on pastures, especially to provide shade for livestock, in general, they are concerned about the negative effects of trees on pasture growth and pasture carrying capacity. Furthermore, it is likely that ranch farmers are still not convinced regarding the costs of planting trees on pastures, because they are unsure about the economic benefits that can result from this practice. The costs of implementing a livestock-forest integration system should be used as a basis for technicians and ranchers in their decision to adopt this technology for the management of dairy herds. For the calculation of the total cost, expenses with inputs, labor, in addition to fixed costs, and opportunity costs for the period of planting and maintenance of the tree component were considered, as well as the prices practiced in the local market. The total cost for Integrated Livestock-Forest system implementation was similar regardless of the tree species, Eucalyptus pellita and Samanea tubulosa (US$ 70.31 and US$ 67.40, respectively). In conclusion, decision making should be based on the main objective of the introduction of the forest component in the system; producing wood products, or supplying multiple services.  aCost benefit analysis  aEconomic analysis  aAnálise de Custo-Benefício  aAnálise Econômica  aAmazônia Ocidental  aCrop-livestock-forest integration  aIntegração lavoura-pecuária-floresta (iLPF)  aPorto Velho (RO)  aRondônia  aSistemas agroflorestais (SAF)  aWestern Amazon1 aCIPRIANI, H.
