Cadastro ambiental rural: distribuição fundiária de propriedades rurais no Estado do Paraná

Abstract

The Rural Environmental Registry (RER) is a mandatory electronic record for all rural properties, with the objective of forming a database for control, monitoring deforestation of forests and other forms of native vegetation in the country. This study surveyed the CAR data and analyzed the land structure in Paraná, considering that the distribution of properties in space is an important tool for planning and public management. Therefore, the general objective was to diagnose the state land distribution, to identify mesoregions with a greater number of small rural properties and to propose graphic representation as a support tool in the elaboration of policies for sustainable local development. The study has exploratory and descriptive steps, quantitative and qualitative approaches. Four stages were used: bibliographical and documentary research; diagnosis of RER data; mapping of the land distribution and proposition of means of use of the land map, elaborated from the software ArcGis, ArcMap 10.3.1. The survey began in 2015 with bibliographic reviews and follow-up of the data released on RER, ending in January 2017. The results indicated the Southwest, West and Southeast with the highest number of rural properties classified as up to 4 Fiscal Modules (FM). It was possible to show the partial land structure of the State of Paraná through maps, based on farmers' declarations, with the following classifications: rural properties of up to 4 FM; From 4.01 to 15 FM and above 15 FM. From this, maps were drawn up showing the percentages of area and number of registrations; the total number of registrations in the RER and the location of clusters of small rural properties. The contribution presented in this study considers the usefulness of a database that can be used in all regions of the State and other locations in Brazil, in the improvement of maps for defining public policies for sustainable development.
