Concentração fundiária e assentamentos de reforma agrária: uma análise da estrutura agrária na Zona da Mata Pernambucana.

The research analyzed the land tenure of the Zona da Mata Pernambucana with the dates of the National System of Rural Cadastre (SNCR) and System of Information of Land Reform's Projects (SIPRA), both from INCRA. From the dates, the properties were ranked in smalholding, small, medium and large; the latter, with the dates of the productivity, was ranked in productive large and unproductive large. After study of existing settlements, the GINI Índex to the Land Concentration (IG-CF) was calculated, in relation to the cities, before and after to the implantation of the settlements, to measure the impacts in the land concentration. We verified that, in the region, there are 560 large properties (1,88% of the total), concentrating 248.000 hectares (40,05% of the total), in which half is unproductive and concentrates more than 127.000 hectares. The settlement of the 14.977 families promoted a reconfiguration of land ownership, in which the small properties increased their share in the total of properties from 17,6% to 59,0% and their share in the occupied area from 11,6% to 31,8%. The IG-CF reduced 15,81% in hole region. In eight cities the reduction was grater than 20%. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
