At low fetility soil, in degraded natural pasture, a field trial was carried out at the Federal University of Viçosa, located at Viçosa – MG, was established the pasture of Brachiaria decumbens in mixture with Stylosanthes guianensis cv. Mineirão to evaluate the effect of limestone doses (1.175, 2.350, 3.525 and 4.700 kg/ha, equivalent 25, 50, 75 and 100% of limestone necessity), gypsum doses (0, 230, 940, 1.880 e 2.820 kg/ha equivalent the substitution of 0, 3,0, 12,5, 25,0 and 37,5% of limestone CaO by gypsum CaO) and P2O5 doses (50, 100, 150, 200 and 250 kg/ha) on the pH; availables P, S and K; exchangeables Ca2+, Mg2+, Al3+, H + Al; sum of bases (SB); effetive CEC (t) and CEC determined in pH 7,0 (T); base saturation (V); aluminum saturation (m) and dry matter production, tillers number and height of brachiaria grass and legume percent. The substitution of the limestone CaO by gypsum CaO increased the percent of stylosanthes, available S and Al3+, in 0-15 and 15-30 cm soil layer, and decreased Ca2+ and Mg2+, in 0-15 cm soil layer. The P doses increased the available P (Mehlich 1) in 0-15 cm soil layer, but decreased the legume percent in the pasture.
