4. Importance
(UN 2012, FAOSTAT)
• Brazilian economy
– GDP 2.254.109 M US$
• Agribusiness
– 24% GDP
– 30% labour force
– 40 % export (46% 2015)
• Agrarian structure
– 5,13 M farms
– 85% Family farmers
• < 4 rural module (from 5 to 100 ha depend on the region)
• Mainly family labour
11. “Modernização” 70’s
• Green revolution
– high-yielding varieties
• Braz. Industrialization
– Role of the Agriculture:
• labour force, Market,
Resources (export)
• Research infrastructure
– Embrapa (Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation)
• Nowadays: 46 units and 16 officies in Brazil. 4 labs and 3 offices in
foreign countries
• Cerrado (Braz. Savannah)
– Development programs
• Polocentro, Prodecer, Padap.
• JICA (Japan International Cooperation Agency)
16. “Native” question
• 698 reserves
• Area: 1.136.357 km2
– 13,4 % Brazil
(8.511.965)
• 3,8 x Italy
• Population: 0,9 M.
– 0,5% Brazil (198,0 M)
• 1,2 km2 per capita
• Current situation
– Poverty, alcoholism,
health care, violence, ...
17. Forest Code
• All 5.130.000 Braz. farms must be registered
– CAR (cadastro ambiental rural = rural environmental
registration).
• On-line system
– Until May 2016
• Legal reserve + Protected areas
– Biodiversity
– Soil conservation
– Water
• Besides legal requirement
– CAR is a mandatory condition for official credit

ABIOVE, the Brazilian Oilseed Processors Association, was founded on
1981 and has 12 members companies who are responsible for approximately
60 percent of Brazil's soybean processing volume.
Brazil is responsible for some 25 percent of the world's soybean production,
with the estimate of a production of 92 million tonnes in the 2014/15 crop.
The soybean complex (beans, meal and oil) is one of the main items in the
country's Trade Balance. In 2014 exports reached US$ 31,4 billion.
Soybean production brings social development to rural areas.

BRAZIL: FOOD PRODUCTION AND BIODIVERSITY
Improvement in Brazil’s Environmental Governance - transparency;
Challenge - to implement the New Forest Code;
Rural Environmental Registration (CAR) is the most advanced tool;
Soybeans are not an important driver of deforestation;
Transition to a new agenda - Processors support to CAR.

To contribute so that soybean farmers are in conformity with Brazil’s new
Forest Code and, in this way, reconcile food production with environmental
conservation.

SOY MORATORIUM - NEW AGENDA
RURAL ENVIRONMENTAL REGISTRATION - CAR
• Identification of the land owner and the area of the rural property: allowing
monitoring and control
• Survey of environmental assets and liabilities: environmental adequacy of
rural properties regarding Legal Reserves and Areas of Permanent
Preservation
• Definition of land use and occupation: reconciling environmental
conservation with food production
• Brings legal security to the producer
• Mato Grosso: 87% and Pará: 77% of the area is done

HIGH CONSERVATION VALUE AREAS (HCVAs)
Environmental legislation guarantees that large areas of
private land are preserved
Areas of Permanent
Preservation (APP):
along the margins of
rivers and hilltops
Legal Reserve (RL):
native vegetation must
be preserved on 20% to
80% depending on the
biome

To contribute so that soybean farmers are in conformity with Brazil’s new
Forest Code and, in this way, reconcile food production with environmental
conservation.
Good News:
Public Governance has improved significantly since 2006 - high
enforcement of the environmental law;
Soyabean is not a relevant vector of Amazon Biome deforestation -
transparency by sattelite monitoring;
Forest Code provides useful tools to protect HCVAs - CAR, Permanent
Preservation Areas and Legal Reserve
