Description:	Diversified sustainable agricultural systems, such as integrated crop-livestock-forest systems (ICLFs), offer substantial potential for enhancing food production to meet the increasing global demand for agricultural goods while, simultaneously, conserving vital natural resources, including soil, water, and forests. However, a critical barrier to the widespread adoption of these sustainable systems in Brazil’s Amazon and Cerrado biomes, its primary agricultural commodity-producing regions, is the lack of comprehensive economic information. This paper presents case studies that evaluate the economic performance of ICLFs compared to traditional agricultural practices in these biomes (extensive livestock and large-scale cropping systems).
