This report finalized in March 2001
constitutes a step toward the objective of designing an
integrated strategy for rural poverty reduction in Brazil,
The report contains an updated and more detailed profile of
the rural poor in the northeast (NE) and southeast (SE) of
Brazil; identifies key determinants of rural poverty in
these regions; and proposes a five-pronged strategic
framework in which to couch a set of integrated policies
that could effectively help to reduce rural poverty in
Brazil. This tentative set of policy options was identified
via an analysis of rural poverty determinants complemented
with an evaluation of relevant current public programs and
six in-depth thematic studies that bear on critical
components of the proposed integrated policy approach aimed
at reducing rural poverty in the NE and SE of Brazil: 1) the
dynamics of the Brazilian small farm sector, 2) rural labor
markets, 3) rural land markets, 4) rural non-farm
employment, 5) rural education, and 6) rural pensions. While
this study emphasizes primarily microeconomic events--such
as the impact of schooling, income transfers, and access to
land and credit--poverty reduction requires both economic
growth (macro-level) and specific anti-poverty policies (micro-level).
