dc.description.abstractThe Cerrado is a natural biome occupying 25 per cent of Brazil’s surface. Compared to the Amazon, it is relatively unknown to international audiences, yet it is currently the world’s largest agricultural frontier. Intensive soybean and beef production are driving deforestation, water depletion, habitat loss, and land grabbing. Emphasising the scale of land-based inequality and conflicts, this briefing exposes the Cerrado as a territory of martyrdom, contrasting the ‘miracle’ portrayed by the dominant agri-food regime. Resistance struggles within the region are outlined and recommendations looking to challenge the success narrative of agribusiness and to move towards territorial justice are presented.en
dc.description.abstractO Cerrado é um bioma natural que ocupa 25% das terras do Brasil. É relativamente desconhecido do público internacional, se comparado com a Amazônia, mas é atualmente a maior fronteira agrícola do mundo. A produção intensiva de soja e de carne bovina impulsiona o desmatamento, o esgotamento da água, a perda de habitat, e o land grabbing (apropriação de terras). Salientando a escala da desigualdade e dos conflitos fundiários, este Briefing revela o Cerrado como um território de martírio, uma perspectiva que contrasta com o “milagre” retratado pelo regime agroalimentar dominante. As lutas de resistência na região são delineadas e são apresentadas recomendações que procuram desafiar a narrativa de sucesso do agronegócio e avançar para a justiça territorial.pt
