In agricultural areas of Cerrado, where there is no possibility of making two cultivation to the year, areas before cultivated with soybeans or corn, remain in fallow until the next crop year, where weed inci- dence is high. In this research was aimed assess the potential for weed suppression by cover crops, when sown in the off season of annual crops. The experimental design was a randomized block with eight treatments (Urochloa ruziziensis, Pennisetum glaucum, Crotalaria juncea, Crotalaria spectabilis, Styzolobium aterrimum, Canavalia ensiformes, Cajanus cajanand Stylosanthes macrocephala + Stylosanthes capitata) in four replica- tions. The evaluations were performed at 45, 90, 135 and 180 days after the sowing (DAS), with determination of dry mass, plant density and vegetal cover over the soil afforded by cover crops and weeds. The population dynamics was evaluated by means of phytosociological parameters. It is conclude that the weed community presents variations during the development cycle of the cover crop and the greater biomass production, soil cover vegetal and weed suppression was obtained with the U. ruziziensis.
