AB  - In order to study the effect of solarization of cattle and sheep manure on dry matter production of triticale forage, a factorial experiment 2x2x4 was developed with two types of cattle and sheep manure, two treatments, nonsolarized and solarized and four levels of application 0, 80, 120 and 160 ton ha<SUP>-1</SUP> with three replications for this purpose, plots of 1x1 m with a used plot of 0.5x0.05 m to be planted with triticale. Manure was solarized for a period of 90 days using manure from dairy cattle fed pasture, alfalfa and concentrate and manure of pasture-fed sheep. For solarization, a 1 mm thick transparent (polyethylene film) rubber covers was used for the manure. The results show that solarization has a positive effect on forage production, under the conditions of this study, a dry matter production of 6,173 kg ha<SUP>-1</SUP> was obtained with sheep solarized manure at a rate of 120 kg ha<SUP>-1</SUP> while the control only reached an average production of 2,049 kg ha<SUP>-1</SUP>. Treatments with sheep solarized manure at equivalent rates of 120 kg ton<SUP>-1</SUP> showed higher productions.
