Description:	Global warming resultant from rising in greenhouse gas emissions (GGE) to atmosphere on the last decades leads the mankind to enrich their knowledge about the relationship between the productive activities and GGE´s (FAO, 2013). Nevertheless, the process of technology development and adoption to increase the environmental behavior of production systems should considered the economic and social sustainability of such production systems (SILVA et al, 2016). The beef livestock production on Brazilian Amazon occur on extensive pasture mainly, as it is on the other country´s Biomas (ALVIM et al, 2015). The North Region participates with 22% of national cattle herd on 2014 (IBGE, 2016). The research aiming to understand and explain the impacts of this activity on the environment, and search mitigation alternatives technologies will develop a more environmental friendly livestock production system. The identification of Technologies and production models which allows the GEE´s reduction with good financial and social outputs. This research objective is to compare the GEE´s emissions, production and economic indicators of four production systems of beef livestock on Brazilian Amazon, both single and in combination with others.
