Abstract:	The absence of nutrient replacement, especially nitrogen (N), is one of the main causes of grazing system underutilization and tropical climate pasture degradation. Therefore, N is a very important nutrient in the pasture maintenance; however, it is necessary to know the maximum limit to be used of this nutrient, since fertilization increases production cost. Thus, the objective of this study was to identify the N dose that provides the highest production of marandu palisadegrass (Brachiaria brizantha cv. Marandu), and the fertilization effect on pasture degradation process and forage nutritive value. Treatments consisted in the application of : 0 (control), 25, 50, 75 and 100 kg N ha−1 cycle−1 of regrowth. The evaluations were carried out during the summers (November to April) of 2015/2016 and 2016/2017. The highest dry matter yield (DMY) and forage accumulation rate (FAR) occurred between doses of 50 and 75 kg ha−1 cycle−1, with no change in productive potential at higher doses. The reduction in mineral content and the increase in crude protein (CP) are the main changes in the nutritional value of marandu palisadegrass, with no pronounced effect on in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD), indigestible neutral detergent fiber (iNDF) and potentially digestible dry matter proportions of CP in the cell wall (CPCW) and in cellular content (CPCC).The productive effect of nitrogen fertilization under marandu palisadegrass is the increase in DMY and FAR. Thus, the use of nitrogen fertilizers in pasture systems with marandu palisadegrass has a greater impact on the area gain than the individual gain, assuming these systems, the use of nitrogen doses of 50 to 75 kg ha−1 cycle−1.
