Abstract

The Bananal/Cantao Island Protected Area (APA) is the largest Protected Area in Tocantins State and is the second largest soybean producing region in the Tocantins, establishing a relationship of economic, social and environmental interests that are often conflicting. This article presents the evolution and the main factors that involve the soybean crop in APA. By means of bibliographical researches, field visits and interviews with the soybean farmers of the APA, it was demonstrated the growth of more than 1,700% of the areas planted with soybeans over a period of 8 years, in which there was significant deforestation in the region. It has also been identified that cultivation takes place in large property, encouraged by the climate and low land prices, and the lack of skilled labor is the main difficulty encountered by soy farmers. It was also identified the non-compliance of environmental legislation by local producers.
托坎廷斯Bananal/ cant o岛保护区大豆种植和生产力概况:2008/2009年至2015/2016年的收成
巴纳纳尔/坎陶岛保护区(APA)是托坎廷斯州最大的保护区,也是托坎廷斯州第二大大豆产区,建立了经常相互冲突的经济、社会和环境利益关系。本文介绍了APA中大豆作物的演变及其主要影响因素。通过文献研究、实地考察和对APA大豆种植者的访谈,证明在8年的时间里,大豆种植面积增长了1700%以上,其中该地区存在明显的森林砍伐现象。研究还发现,受气候和低地价的影响,种植面积很大,而缺乏熟练劳动力是大豆种植者遇到的主要困难。还查明了当地生产商不遵守环境立法的情况。
