A new study published by foundation grantees at the University of Viçosa examines spatial and temporal evolution of agriculture and the demand for land in Brazil over the past few decades.

The message is encouraging: Brazil has been able to significantly intensify production while still reducing the pressure on ecosystems. Additionally, there is still plenty of room for meeting the growing demand for commodities in the area. The study provides clear insights to guide future territorial planning, sustainable agriculture, policy, and decision-making.
