| Resumo: | The objective of this study is to analyze the growth of sugarcane in the city of Rio Brilhante-MS, correlating this growth with environmental impacts caused by manual harvesting facilitation technique with the burning straw of the sugarcane. To understand the sugarcane expansionist process, its analyzed the incentives from the state government and the federal government, through the National Bank for Economic and Social Development, the Constitutional Fund of the Midwest and the Growth Acceleration Program. Also statistical data from government agencies were analyzed, as entities and intuitions of the area. As consideration, it was possible to demonstrate that the burning of straw sugarcane became one of the factors that, together with the social and environmental aspects arising from the expansion of this monoculture process in the state, led to various forms of environmental degradation with high potential risk fauna and flora as well as being harmful to human being, generating consequences as: Biomes invasion and the Permanent Preservation Areas or Environmental Protection, and the contamination of water resources, soil and pollution of the air, giving evidence that the economic gains often overlap with healthy environmental. |
