description | Silvopastoral systems are seen as a feasible solution for livestock with a focus on sustainability, particularly because they contribute to food security, by generating food products, jobs and income. However, livestock has also generated negative impacts on the environment, such as soil compaction, detriment of biodiversity, deforestation, pollution of water sources and emission of greenhouse gases, which contribute to climate change, this being one of the most worrisome environmental problems, since it harms all living beings on the planet. For this reason, it is essential to delve into the issue of silvopastoral systems, their types, advantages and disadvantages to present them as an alternative solution that contributes to mitigate the livestock effect on the environment, representing a viable option for its conservation and adaptation to climate change; this is achieved by allowing the intensification of livestock production through the optimization and rational use of natural resources. |

Los sistemas silvopastoriles son vistos como una solución factible para la ganadería con enfoque de sostenibilidad. Se destaca que la ganadería contribuye con la seguridad alimentaria, al generar productos alimenticios, empleos e ingresos; sin embargo, también ha generado impactos negativos en el ambiente, como lo son la compactación del suelo, el detrimento de la biodiversidad, la deforestación, la contaminación de fuentes hídricas y la emisión de gases de efecto invernadero, que contribuyen al cambio climático, uno de los inconvenientes ambientales más preocupantes, ya que perjudica a todos los seres vivos del planeta. Por esta razón, se hace indispensable ahondar en el tema de los sistemas silvopastoriles, sus tipos, ventajas y desventajas, con el fin de presentarlos como una alternativa de solución que contribuye con la mitigación del efecto que tiene la ganadería sobre el medioambiente, representando una opción viable para su conservación y adaptación al cambio climático al permitir intensificar la producción ganadera mediante la optimización y uso racional de los recursos naturales.
