Descrição
Resumo:The modernization of agriculture in Brazil did not occur uniformly between regions; in the South and Southeast, this process was faster than in the Northeast. This study aims to build an Agricultural Modernization. Index (IMA) in order to verify the conditions of modernization in northeastern municipalities. We used, for this, data from the Agricultural Census of 2017 and applied Factor and Clusters Analysis to find the indicators associated with agricultural activity and group similar municipalities according to the IMA. The results show that 88.42% of the municipalities analyzed have a low agricultural propensity, and only 0.91% had an index considered good. Thus, government management is expected to invest in public policies that equalize disparities between localities, stimulating the use of irrigation systems, appropriate machinery and equipment, and the increase of areas explored in order to improve the modernization process in the Northeast region.
