description Conditional elements of the improvement of the income’s distribution and nutritional indices in Brazil are analyzed. At the same time, it indicates there still are problems in the production and consumption of agricultural products and foods. With participation of credit, minimum price and research, the productivity and the agricultural production have grown increasing its availability per capita. Agricultural prices reduced, helping with events in the food industry and in retail so that the foods were 34% cheaper between 1994 and 2006. The competitiveness of Brazilian agriculture system is evident in the increase of its participation in the worldwide exportation. However, increased at the same time, the indebtedness of farmers. The productive success was not repeated in social terms, with a decrease in the agricultural occupation and maintenance of high concentration of the ownership of the land, in detriment of familiar agriculture. The indicators of distribution of income of the Brazilian population have been improving since 1990, based on the control of inflation, the expansion of programs of income’s transference and the increase, from 2003 in front, of formal employment and minimum wage. The number of families in extreme poverty and the indices of malnutrition of children and adults have fallen. Meanwhile, the concentration of income in Brazil continues very high and important differences remain, with indicators of poverty and malnutrition being higher in rural areas, in North and Northeast and between black and brown. On the other hand, the indices of on weight and obesity being grow, even among the poorest.

Ao mesmo tempo, apontam-se problemas ainda existentes na produção e no consumo de produtos agropecuários e alimentos. Com participação do crédito, preço mínimo e pesquisa, a produtividade e a produção agropecuária cresceram, aumentando sua disponibilidade per capita. Os preços agropecuários se reduziram, contribuindo, juntamente com acontecimentos na indústria alimentícia e no varejo para que os alimentos ficassem 34% mais baratos entre 1994 e 2006. A competitividade do sistema agropecuário brasileiro fica patente no aumento de sua participação nas exportações mundiais. Contudo, ao mesmo tempo, cresceu o endividamento dos agricultores. O sucesso produtivo não se repetiu em termos sociais, com redução na ocupação agropecuária e manutenção de alta concentração da posse da terra, em detrimento da agricultura familiar. Os indicadores de distribuição de renda da população brasileira melhoraram a partir de 1990, com base no controle da inflação, na ampliação dos programas de transferência de renda e no aumento, de 2003 em diante, do emprego formal e salário mínimo. Caíram o número de famílias em extrema pobreza e os índices de desnutrição de crianças e adultos. Entretanto, a concentração de renda no Brasil continua muito alta e permanecem diferenças importantes, com indicadores de pobreza e desnutrição sendo mais altos na zona rural, no norte e nordeste e entre pretos e pardos. Por outro lado, vem crescendo os índices de sobre peso e obesidade, mesmo entre os mais pobres. 2008-06-30 2022-03-21T18:24:18Z 2022-03-21T18:24:18Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://revistas.ufpr.br/raega/article/view/14246 10.5380/raega.v15i0.14246 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/74293 por https://revistas.ufpr.br/raega/article/view/14246/9572 application/pdf UFPR RA'E GA Journal - The Geographic Space in Analysis; v. 15 (2008) Raega - O Espaço Geográfico em Análise; v. 15 (2008) 2177-2738 1516-4136 10.5380/raega.v15i0
