    This research was conducted in the Guayama San Pedro Community, Chugchilán Parish, Sigchos Canton, Cotopaxi Province. In order to evaluate three forage species: Blue Grass (Dactylis glomerata), Rye Grass (Lolium perenne) and Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L. ), with the application of 4 different doses of humic and fulvic acids: D1 (2.5ml/l), D2 (5ml/l), D3 (7.5 ml/l), D4 (no application) every 15 days, the methodology to be followed is a completely randomized block design (DBCA) with factorial arrangement (A*B), 12 treatments and 3 replications giving a total of 36 experimental units; The 5% Tukey test was performed to determine the best dose D1 (2.5 ml/l), D2 (5ml/l), D3 (7.5 ml/l), D4 (without application) and the best species: Bluegrass, Rye Grass and Alfalfa; based on the variables to be evaluated, plant height, stem diameter, number of tillers per plant, biomass production, dry matter percentage and ash percentage. As results the best dose was dose 2 (5ml/l) with an average forage production of 0.5 kg/m², on the other hand, the best treatment with the highest biomass production was T6 (Rye grass with dose 2) with an average of 1.25 kg/m², as for the percentage of ash was dose 3 (7, 5ml/l) with an average of 13.89% demonstrating the forage quality of the species, as for the economic analysis of each treatment, it was observed that the treatment 6 (Rye grass with dose 2) had a cost of $ 18.67 and had an income of $ 24.84; the treatment that should be used is Rye grass with 5 ml/l of humic and fulvic acids (T6) since the agronomic and yield response is adequate for farmers.
