Resumo: O presente trabalho tem por objetivo avaliar o impacto do Pronaf no PIB da economia brasileira e nos PIBs setoriais (PIB de serviços, agropecuário e industrial) a partir da aplicação de regressão quantílica com efeitos fixos para dados em painel. Além disso, diante da questão relativa à distribuição dos recursos, avaliam-se os diferentes resultados dentro do contexto regional, isto é, os diferentes impactos nas cinco macrorregiões do País (Norte, Nordeste, Centro-Oeste, Sudeste e Sul). O uso do modelo de regressão quantílica com efeitos fixos para dados em painel se justifica pelo fato de que as variáveis usadas na análise apresentam forte desigualdade entre os municípios brasileiros. Ao observar a resposta de cada quantil, e não apenas em relação à média, bem como levar em consideração o controle dos efeitos fixos, os efeitos do Pronaf sobre o PIB podem ser melhor captados. Os principais resultados obtidos indicam que há um efeito positivo do programa sobre o PIB total e PIBs setoriais. Apesar de o programa ser de caráter nacional, há diferentes efeitos entre as regiões, que sugerem que (i) mudanças e aprimoramentos no Pronaf possam ser conduzidos de maneira pertinente à cada região e que (ii) os recursos possam ser descentralizados.

“…If, however, the harvest fails, they will not be able to access insurance. Despite the important results in reducing rural poverty [66], it maintains a concentration of resources and contracts on more capitalised, cash-crop farmers (mainly corn and soybeans), reinforcing its strong productivity-based bias [67]. Lack of trained human resources for technical assistance and project design and socio-economic viability analysis at financial institutions represent additional constraints for directing the policy to support more sustainable farming practices (e.g., that do not rely on toxic chemicals) and socio-economic development.…”

Understanding the Implications of Alternative Bioenergy Crops to Support Smallholder Farmers in Brazil

et al. 2020

Smallholders constitute more than three quarters of the world’s farmers, and despite their numbers, they commonly lack opportunities to advance their development status. Bioenergy production and consumption can help sustain smallholders’ energy needs and generate employment and income, but it also raises concerns over social justice and equity, especially where crops used for bioenergy could also be used for food. This perspective paper is grounded in a literature review related to three different crops in Brazil: sugarcane, landrace maize and sweet potato. It seeks to determine if these crops offer the potential to support smallholder farmers’ development in a more equitable way, focusing on opportunities for their use in bioenergy. We review the literature to identify policies shaping the smallholder development context in relation to these crops, assessing whose knowledge informs policy and institutional decision making, and highlighting the policy attention afforded to the different crops from different sectors. We further evaluate the literature on each crop in relation to water use and calorific value (i.e., food and energy). Our review indicates that while sugarcane has received the most policy and institutional attention, its development is largely anchored in research and development investments that support large-scale commercial farms and agri-businesses. Smallholders have not benefited or had the opportunity to engage in relevant policy decision making for sugarcane cultivation. At the same time, smallholders hold valuable untapped knowledge on the cultivation of sweet potato and landrace maize, both of which have the potential to generate development opportunities for smallholders. Our review suggests that the environmental impact of landrace maize and sweet potato in terms of water use is significantly lower than sugarcane, while they can generate more calories for energy or food consumption and offer diversification opportunities. Despite that these alternative crops offer considerable untapped potential to support rural development, more research is still needed to harness these benefits. Changes are needed to address inequities in policies, institutions and the types of knowledge informing decision making. Such changes need to afford smallholder farmers greater recognition and participation in decision making, so that the distribution of benefits from the three study crops can reach them to support their development better.

“…Notably, these instruments are effective when applied to low-income farmers. Batista and Neder (2014) also investigated the effects of PRONAF on rural poverty in Brazil between 2001 and 2009. They assumed that this instrument does not affect rural poverty directly but does affect the variation of income and/or the variation in income inequality.…”

“…The Brazilian government has implemented several public policies aimed at decreasing income inequality. These policies were based on programs such as income transfer, pension, and credit, but they have shown only a modest contribution to the decrease of rural income inequality (Barros et al, 2006;Soares, 2010;Batista and Neder, 2014).…”

Does Access to Rural Credit Help Decrease Income Inequality in Brazil?

Agricultural production in Brazil has increased in recent decades. Despite this, the rural population continues to face income inequality. Policies targeting this issue, such as rural credit, have been implemented during this period. This study estimates the influence of credit on income inequality in Brazilian rural areas. Results suggest that the family farming credit program (PRONAF) is not associated with increase in inequality. However, access to rural credit from sources other than PRONAF has led to greater household income inequality. Results also indicate that greater levels of education and access to rural extension have boosted the effect of credit on income.
