The structures sugarcane and citrus fruit in Alagoas, Pernambuco and São Paulo

This article intends to verify through a comparative descriptive analysis the sources of growth of crops sugar cane and citrus fruit in the municipalities that comprise the microregions da Mata Alagoana, Mata, Pernambuco Southern Forest North of Pernambuco and Ribeirão Preto in São Paulo, from Municipal Agricultural Research data from 1990 and 2012 (PAM-IBGE). Use the shift-share method as a means of generating relevant information for verification of specific regional problems. For Pernambuco there is a decay of sugarcane production and substitution by other activities, Alagoas is the State with the highest dependence on sugar cane production, but there is a need for technological improvement in cultivation for survival of culture, and São Paulo, stands out as the largest producer of sugar cane range, taking space from other cultures. In citrus, São Paulo presents industry crisis and its replacement by other cultures. In Alagoas, the citrus faces production problems, given low yield productive and marketing problems, so that there is the development of activities with the cattle and milk competing in the same productive space. Thus, in modern agribusiness must accompany the productive dynamics on the main trends of innovation, allowing for maintain the competitiveness of sector. The increase in competitiveness, as a result of high productivity and quality, with lower production costs, clearly points to stalkers, guidelines giving sustainability to the economy.
