| Resumo: | This article intends to measure rural development in the municipalities of Ceará, through the creation of a Rural Development Index (IDRURAL), identifying its main conditioning factors. To this end, 29 indicators were selected that contemplate different dimensions of rural development. The methodological procedures used were: Factor Analysis for the construction of IDRURAL and the cluster analysis was used to identify the similarities between the municipalities of Ceará, in terms of the level of rural development. The analysis of the main components showed that the indicators related to education, income, labor, housing conditions, soil conservation practices, access to electricity and rural credit, as well as other variables analyzed, better explain the level of rural development in Ceará. The results showed that only 25 municipalities in Ceará (13.59%) had high levels of rural development. The intermediate IDRURAL cluster, on the other hand, contains the largest number of municipalities, equivalent to a total of 81 (44.02%). The cluster with low IDRURAL corresponds to a total of 78 (42.39%) municipalities cearenses. |
