in the fresh and dry matter yield of the panicle, with both showing higher production in the inoculated area, while no significant differences were observed for the other components. Additionally, in Table 9, it is noted that in plots where grasses were inoculated in the crop rotation, FM P and DM P were 15.6% and 17% higher, respectively, than in non-inoculated plots. \begin{table}
