Queimadas nos canaviais e perspectivas dos cortadores de cana-de-açúcar em Macatuba, São Paulo

Abstract: ResumoA lei nº 11.241/2002 do estado de São Paulo proíbe a queima de cana-de-açúcar pré-colheita devido ao alto impacto que a fumaça desse processo causa na saúde coletiva e no meio ambiente. De modo gradativo, a previsão inicial era de que a proibição fosse efetiva em 2031. Posteriormente, acordo entre governo do Estado e União da Indústria de Cana-de-açúcar (Unica), estabeleceu redução do prazo para 2017. A cana-de-açúcar, quando não queimada, exige muito mais esforço dos cortadores, diminuindo a produtivida… Show more

“…Such trends and patterns take place mostly at the transition zone with the Cerrado biome (i.e., the Arc of Deforestation), characterized by intense anthropic occupation [48,[68][69][70][71][72][73]. In relation to the Atlantic Forest (Figure 9(c)), it is noteworthy the well distributed occurrence of burned areas over the remnant vegetation (35% or 9,617 km 2 ), pastures (25% or 6,651 km 2 ), and agricultural fields (39% or 10,553 km 2 ), as the sugarcane plantations, mostly found in this biome, still use fire to assist in the harvest [17,[74][75][76]. It should be emphasized, however, that these numbers do not reflect the real magnitude of the agricultural area subject to fires in the Atlantic Forest domains, as the spatial resolution of the MCD45A1 product is often too coarse to capture the mean patch size and fragmentation of the cultivated fields, and large omission errors are also likely to occur due to the prevalent cloudy conditions in April, when most of the harvest begins.…”

“…Indeed, only in the State of Sã o Paulo, around 20,000 km 2 of sugarcane plantations are submitted to the straw burning practice every harvesting season [77,78]. Based on an agreement between the government of Sã o Paulo and the Sugarcane Industry (UNICA), supported by the state legislation N° 11.241/2002, the expectation is that, as of 2017, all sugarcane harvesting will be mechanized, which should significantly contribute to reduce fires in the Atlantic Forest [76].…”

“…A fase agrícola é dividida em dois períodos: entressafra e safra. A entressafra é caracterizada pelo plantio da cana crua e não ocorre a queima da palha da cana-deaçúcar e, nesse período, os trabalhadores são expostos à grande quantidade de poeira ocupacional, enquanto na safra ocorre a queima noturna da palha da cana-de-açúcar, fato que antecede o corte manual, realizado pelo cortador de cana 3 .…”

“…Vários estudos desenvolvidos no Brasil e especialmente em São Paulo (ALESSI; NAVARRO, 1997;SCOPINHO et al, 1999;ALVES, 2006;NO-VAES, 2007;RUMIN;SCHMIDT, 2008;RIBEIRO;FICARELLI, 2010;ROCHA et al, 2010) têm discutido a questão social e ambiental relacionada aos trabalhadores da cana de açúcar, porém, em Minas Gerais, pesquisas dessa natureza são ainda incipientes. Entretanto, independente do local onde são produzidos esses estudos os autores são unânimes em apontar aspectos como a baixa remuneração, carência de organização sindical, a exploração do trabalhador através do ganho por produtividade, as condições precárias de moradia e alimentação e, ainda, as condições ambientais rigorosas a que esses trabalhadores encontram-se expostos, impactando diretamente sua saúde e qualidade de vida.…”
