Abastecimento alimentar no Brasil: 1951/60 (uma introdução a seu estudo socioeconômico).

Abstract

The expansion of food production in Brazil occurs until the 1950s, without major pressure from the urban-industrial sector and without the direct stimulus of the State. Thus, the dynamics of domestic supply did not receive significant interference from the agricultural organization itself, engaged in food production, although it did benefit from several indirect stimuli. These emerged in the "gaps" left by the large export farm in the periods of crisis in this sector, as well as in the time spaces between the decline of one economic cycle and the expansionary phase of the next. This is where food production is used to expand and project itself temporarily, as an emergency alternative in the face of adverse economic circumstances through which it periodically crosses the country's economy.
