<jats:abstract xmlns:jats="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/JATS1" xml:lang="en">
<jats:p>Maize is important in crop rotation in Tropical Brazil, with vast off-season following soybeans. Off-season maize is being grown intercropped with forages to supply pastures to cattle after maize harvest and to help with weed suppression. There is, however, scarce information on weed dynamics in the soybean and maize + forage cropping system, mainly in the long term. The objective was to evaluate weed infestation and the ecological sustainability of successive years of off-season maize cultivation, under crop succession with soybean. The phytosociological method was used to assess the importance value of weed infestation in five areas: T1 four years of soybean/off-season maize + brachiaria; T2 four years of soybean/cowpea bean; T3 four years of soybean/off-season maize; T4 six years of soybean/off-season maize; T5 nine years of soybean/off-season maize. In general, T1 had lower absolute infestation, and the longer the maize-soybean succession, the more weeds there were. The main species found were Digitaria horizontalis, Gnaphalium coarctatum, Commelina benghalensis, and Conyza ssp., all occurring only in areas with longer maize and soybean succession. Therefore, different cropping systems influence weed composition and absolute infestation levels. The use of maize intercropped with brachiaria can be a tool in weed control for maize producers.</jats:p>

<jats:p>O milho é importante na rotação de culturas no Brasil, sendo amplamente cultivado na safrinha, após a soja. O milho safrinha está sendo cultivado consorciado com forrageiras, visando fornecer pastagens ao gado após a colheita do milho e auxiliar na supressão de plantas daninhas. Há, no entanto, escassas informações sobre a dinâmica de plantas daninhas no sistema de cultivo soja milho + forragem, principalmente em longo prazo. O objetivo foi avaliar a infestação de plantas daninhas e a sustentabilidade ecológica de anos sucessivos de cultivo de milho safrinha, sob sucessão de culturas com soja. O método fitossociológico foi utilizado para avaliar o valor de importância da infestação de plantas daninhas em cinco áreas: T1 quatro anos de soja / milho safrinha + braquiária; T2 quatro anos de soja / feijão-caupi; T3 quatro anos de soja / milho safrinha; T4 seis anos de soja / milho safrinha; T5 nove anos de soja / milho safrinha. Em geral, o T1 apresentou menor infestação absoluta, e quanto maior o número de anos de sucessão milho-soja, maior o número de plantas daninhas. As principais espécies encontradas foram Digitaria horizontalis, Gnaphalium coarctatum, Commelina benghalensis e Conyza ssp., ocorrendo apenas em áreas com maiores anos de sucessão milho e soja. Portanto, diferentes sistemas de cultivo influenciam na composição de plantas daninhas e na infestação absoluta. O uso do milho consorciado com braquiária pode ser uma ferramenta no controle de plantas daninhas para produtores de milho.</jats:p>
