GENDER, TECHNOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENT IN AGRICULTURE

Review of Urban & Regional Development Studies, 1995, vol. 7, issue 1, 50-69

Abstract: The authors analyze the impacts of Southern Latin America integration on Brazilian agriculture. The first part describes the creation of MERCOSUL and its consequences on Brazilian agriculture. Two types of effects are investigated: how MERCOSUL may have induced improvements in the level of competitiveness of the local production of wheat; and the strategies for productive reintegration developed by wheat producers and other economic agents. Some conclusions are presented discussing agricultural diversification as an alternative to economic integration in southern Latin America.
