About the Region and Surroundings:
A region considered today as the great national agricultural frontier, Matopiba comprises the Cerrado biome of the states of Maranhão, Tocantins, Piauí and Bahia and accounts for a large part of the Brazilian production of grains and fibers.
The area, until recently considered without a strong agricultural tradition, has attracted attention due to its increased productivity numbers. In the last four years, only the State of Tocantins increased its planted area at a rate of 25 % per year, according to data from the National Supply Company (Conab).
The flat topography, the deep soils and the favorable climate for the cultivation of the main grain and fiber crops enabled the vertiginous growth of the region, which until the end of the 1980s was based heavily on extensive livestock.
The area comprises a total of 337 municipalities and represents a total of around 73 million hectares. There are approximately 324,000 agricultural establishments in the area, 46 conservation units, 35 indigenous lands and 781 land reform settlements, according to a survey by Embrapa’s Strategic Intelligence Group (GITE).
Vegetation and Biome:
Largely Considered as semi-arid, the territory of the municipality of Barra is composed of the Caatinga biome (by 34 %) and of the Cerrado biome (64 %). The farm area is in the transition region of the biomes, with a low volume of vegetation cover, with a low presence of large pot trees.
As a result, the property is outside the soy region, making it an area of public and private interest for development.
