Abstract

A fronteira agrícola está se expandindo na direção do Cerrado brasileiro (cerca de 22% da superfície do território nacional), principalmente devido ao uso intensivo de conhecimento e tecnologia. Este Texto para Discussão pretende fazer uma análise econômica regional e calcular indicadores que possam medir a dinâmica do espaço produtivo. Além disso, será investigada a dimensão da tecnologia na capacidade de poupar recursos escassos. A expansão da produção de grãos e pecuária é mostrada na região central do Brasil, incluindo-se a região do Matopiba e a fronteira na Amazônia. Busca-se apresentar um diagnóstico dessa expansão, uma análise do efeito poupa-terra e os principais gargalos logísticos relacionados ao crescimento econômico.
