Análise de desempenho das culturas agrícolas microrregionais na Paraíba.

Abstract

The agriculture of Paraiba has faced big retardment in its history in terms of technology, utility of the soil and aptness of each place, culminanted with poverty and difficulty in its development. The main objective of this work is to develop, to try and to analysis a mathematical model to explain Paraiba redemption of microrregional agriculture, temporary and permanent cultures, from 1974 up to 1997. Talking about the methodology of variables quantification, the present study begins with a caracterization of the microrregoes of the Paraiba, investigating its position, soil productivity, environment of cultures, utilization of technology and raining lost per year. As a measure of behavior of cultures agricultures would be utilized coefficients of intensity technology, of specialization/localization and redistribution of cultures agricultures. Finally, the agriculture economy of Paraiba presents a traditional form, witch permanent cultures have coefficients of specialization smaller than temporaries, with less redistribution o f cultures agricultures in the analysed years.
