| Summary: | The objective of this report is to
design an integrated strategy for rural poverty reduction in
Brazil. It contains an updated and detailed profile of the
rural poor in the northeast and southeast regions of Brazil;
identifies key determinants of rural poverty in these
regions; and proposes a five-pronged strategic framework and
a tentative set of policy options. The latter were
identified via an analysis of rural poverty determinants
complemented with an evaluation of relevant current public
programs and six in-depth thematic studies: (a) the dynamics
of the Brazilian small farm sector, (b) rural labor markets,
(c) rural land markets, (d) rural non-farm employment, (e)
rural education, and (f) rural pensions. |
