Resources for financing agriculture and climate change

This study comprises a survey of public resources allocated in 20221, in favorable conditions for agricultural activities in the states located in the Legal Amazon and Matopiba, a region with large and expanding grain production (soybeans and corn), mostly located in Cerrado areas in the states of Maranhão, Tocantins, Piauí and Bahia. The Legal Amazon and the Cerrado were the biomes with greatest native vegetation losses in the past 38 years (1985-2022), with 51 and 32 million hectares respectively. In the same period, those biomes recorded the same increase of land occupation by agricultural activities.
