| Sumario: | This work identified the relevant aspects of agricultural modernization basedon the characteristics of 4,535 Brazilian municipalities in 2006. A Factor Analysis modelwas adjusted, considering 30 variables to capture the adoption of agricultural “goodpractices” and the use of modern inputs. The modernization process was synthesized infour factors: Intensive land-use; Capitalization and technification of animal husbandry;Technification of agriculture; and Capital-labor ratio. The results pointed to a regionalconcentration of the Intensive land-use factor in the Southeast region, in the state ofParaná and in the coastal strip of the country, of the Technification of agriculture factor in the South region and in parts of the Southeast region and of the Capital-laborratio factor in the Midwest and Southeast regions. The Capitalization and technification of animal husbandry, in turn, is a factor that demonstrates more uniform regionaldistribution. The northeastern region is a worrying aspect in relation to modernization, since it presented weak indicators in almost all aspects identified and the public policiesadopted in the early 2000s proved insufficient to mitigate this problem. |
