The objective of this research was to know the main tree species and fodder shrubs that are consumed by cattle, as well as to identify their different uses. To this end, a survey previously prepared was applied to the local producers. The most relevant results in the production units evaluated showed that the consumption of these trees and fodder shrubs improved the body condition of the livestock (85%) and knowledge of how easily are propagated these tree species (75%). It is very important to emphasize its significant use as living fences, medicinal, poles and in the furniture making. As for the majority of the species studied, they showed acceptable nutritional contents. Highlighting that the Crude Protein (PC) being much higher than that of the tropical grasses (Panicum maximum, Cynodon plectostachyus) and in several cases, also higher than that of the commercial concentrates (oats, barley, rye).
