The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of spacing on eucalyptus in silvopastoral system under production and chemical composition of Brachiaria decumbens. Four treatments were used, which were related to the three spaces planting of eucalyptus (3x2, 6x4 and 10x4m) plus the control treatment (no tree). The experimental design was randomized complete block with four treatments, four blocks and two repetitions per block, and the analysis was made by repeated measurements. It was found effects of treatment on the forage mass yielding and dry matter accumulation rate (DMAR). There were no effect of planting spacing either or leaf/stem ratio or CP percentage, NDF percentage and mineral percentage. Planting spacing of Eucalyptus urophylla affects both production and chemical composition of Brachiaria evaluated up to the 24 months.
