Abstract

Since the colonization the Brazil has experimented the inequality on access to earth property widely supported by state. The Brazil has historically been on international trade through the primary specialization and had been had been passed by several cycles based on an agricultural task. The country had specialized to answer the external demand and fixed on countryside a concentrated land activity with monoculture production. The modern agriculture was prioritized by public policy and other kinds of farmers were forgotten. Pressure movements arise to access the land and from 90’s started to be answered. Settlements projects initiatives originating from a specific agrarian reform had made effective and the Parana State was benefited, including the citizenship territories, object of study analysis. Two space clipping was chosen on the search and so the problem arises: “How the settlement rural implantation had contributed to land structure and agricultural profile of Cantuquiriguaçu and Norte Pioneiro citizenship territories?” The goal of this search is analyzing the contribution of rural settlements of agrarian reform and farming production profile on Cantuquiruguaçu and Norte Pioneiro citizenship territories. The specific objectives are: to identify the land concentration in 1995 and 2006, characterize the agricultural production profile for settlement farmers and identify the relationship between producer conditions and the agricultural production profile. The used methodology refers to a documentary research based on secondary sources of agricultural data 1995/1996 and 2006. The data were collected from the earth Gini index and the quantity of agricultural products and animal production produced for the territories and municipalities that comprise them. As main results were observed the occurrence of deconcentration land ownership on Cantuquiriguaçu territory, that has the largest number of beneficiaries and occupied areas. It was possible to identify that even without the land deconcentration occurrency, the settlements provides contribution on agricultural production that can contribute to family food security and food supply. Another notable aspect is the advance on commodities production in settlements. The conquest of land is a land ownership deconcentration alternative. However, the settlement agricultural tasks, productive potential was observed in the Cantuquiriguaçu territory and Norte Pioneiro.
