Abstract: This research addresses the relationship between agriculture and industry in theprocess of capital accumulation in Brazil from the late twenties through the early sixties. Itis an exploration of the dynamics of the intersectoral linkages during the period and of theeffects of state policies on those dynamics. It was shown that while Brazilian agricultureperformed its five traditional functions throughout the period from 1930 to 1960, its performancewas not a history of steady progress on each front. During the fifties, the five functionsappeared to contain internal contradictions which were associated with the establishmentof the durable consumption and heavy capital goods industries. The state policies wereseen as reinforcing those contradictions which contributed to the crisis in the Brazilian economyof the early sixties. JEL Classification: Q11; Q14; Q17.
