POLÍTICA DE PRECIFICAÇÃO DE GEE: impactos econômicos e ambientais na agrologística de grãos no Mato Grosso

Abstract

Este trabalho busca analisar o quão determinante seriam as políticas precificação de emissões de gases do efeito estufa (GEE) na competividade logística agroindustrial no Brasil. Para isso, considerou dois projetos de infraestrutura logística em fase de pré-concessão, Ferrogrão e Ferrovia Paraense, visando o escoamento da produção de grãos no estado do Mato Grosso. Assim, determinando as áreas de influência não apenas por meio dos custos de transporte, bem como com a incorporação dos custos provenientes das emissões, as soluções logísticas intermodais, considerando os dois projetos, indicam que essas são as que apresentam potencial maior área de influência para captação das menores emissões GEE. Cenário esse corroborado, visto que, consideradas elevações no custo por tonelada de CO2 emitido, o escoamento por meio da Ferrogrão e da Ferrovia Paraense se tornariam maiores.Palavras-chave: Precificação.

Two transportation infrastructure projects are analyzed, Ferrogrão and Pará Railway. By determining the areas of influence not only through transportation costs, as well as the incorporation of emissions costs, intermodal logistics solutions, considering the two projects, indicate that these are the ones with the largest potential area of influence to capture the lowest GHG emissions. This is corroborated as, considering increases in the cost per ton of CO2 emitted, the flow through Ferrogrão and Pará Railway would become larger.Keywords: Pricing. Emissions. Agribusiness.

Development Indicators and Soybean Production in Brazil

“…Regarding environmental aspects, agribusiness, as one of the main economic activities in Brazil, is a sector with significant representation in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions [14]. Environmental degradation is directly linked to economic activities practised on the planet.…”

“…In half a century of cultivation, the area of soybean planted exceeded 36 million hectares and its production for the 2020 harvest was over 122 million tons ha, and the 2020 harvest was over 122 million tons [12,13]. Mato Grosso is responsible for a significant part of Brazilian production, being the main national producer of soybean and corn crops, generating foreign exchange, moving different segments of the economy [14]. Located in the central-west region of the country, the state has three different biomes: Amazon, Cerrado, and Pantanal, and is the state accounts for a significant part of Brazilian production, being the primary national soybean and corn production, generating trade, and moving different economy segments [14].…”
