ABSTRACT
This study aimed to simulate and verify the rentability of an agroforestry system composed of eucalipt, rice, soybean e cattle, according to the spacing variation in the plantation of eucalypt and agroforestry system, and compare the results with conventional eucalypt planting. Financial analysis was performed through the forestry project evaluation methods, Net Present Value (VPL), Equivalent Annual Value (VAE), Benefit/Cost Relation (B/C) and Internal Return Rate (TIR). All projects were shown to be economically viable, with eucalyptus monoculture showing the best results. We verified that the gain in area with planting of crops agricultural and cattle creation did not lead to the same financial return if this area was planted with trees.
