Title	AMAPÁ: A NEW GRAIN AGRIBUSINESS FRONTIER

Creator	Chelala, Cláudia Fernandes Chelala, Charles Achcar

Description	The search for new land for agribusiness to expand remains in Brazil, and Amapá state has recently become one of the new frontiers of the country. As in other geographical spaces engaged with agribusiness, Amapá also has its uniqueness, represented by the fact of being a state with reduced agricultural tradition, great participation of the public sector in the economy, and high percentage of its land transformed into specially protected spaces. On the other hand, it presents an area with savanna vegetation (the Brazilian Cerrado) that has been little explored, cheap land, and a strategic geographical location. This article analyzes the process of introducing agribusiness in the state, highlighting the limitations to its development and the potentials capable of transforming the productive sector of the state.
