Descripción
Sumario:The northern region of Minas Gerais presents itself as an area of lower commercial value of the land in the state. Thus, land acquisition for the implementation of forestry projects, especially eucalyptus, was facilitated. Eucalyptus demand large areas, so the price of land is an important variable for the economic success of the enterprise. In this context, this paper analyzed the spatial distribution of such cultivation in the northern state of Minas Gerais, in the years 1986, 1996 and 2010. Thus, we used medium-resolution orbital products to extract the areas of eucalyptus. These data were overlaid through GIS, other characteristics of this region. Thus, it was possible to identify the dynamics of this forest, which, according to the results, has been reducing the area occupied in the north of Minas Gerais.
