In these 37 years, agricultural activities have expanded by 508%, from 4 million hectares to almost 25 million hectares in the Cerrado. Of this total, 20 million are soybean fields. In the last 10 years, however, this crop has advanced mainly over areas of native vegetation in the Matopiba states (Maranh\u00e3o, Tocantins, Piau\u00ed and Bahia). Together, they account for 80% of the direct conversion of native vegetation to sojiculture between 2011 and 2021. Another state that stands out is Minas Gerais, where soybean plantations jumped from 14,000 hectares in 1985 to 2.4 million hectares in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Os dados s\u00e3o da mais recente colet\u00e2nea de informa\u00e7\u00f5es sobre ocupa\u00e7\u00e3o e uso da terra no territ\u00f3rio brasileiro produzida pelo MapBiomas a partir de todas as imagens dispon\u00edveis nos \u00faltimos 37 anos pelos sat\u00e9lites Landsat.\u00a0 O levantamento sobre o segundo maior bioma brasileiro, que est\u00e1 sendo lan\u00e7ado neste domingo, 11, quando se comemora o Dia do Cerrado, mostra ainda que praticamente um ter\u00e7o (30,6%) da antropiza\u00e7\u00e3o de \u00e1reas do Cerrado aconteceu nos \u00faltimos 37 anos. Em 2021 apenas metade do bioma (53,1%) ainda est\u00e1 coberto por vegeta\u00e7\u00e3o nativa.\u00a0 Foram 27,9 milh\u00f5es de hectares de vegeta\u00e7\u00e3o nativa perdidos entre 1985 e 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"The Cerrado is undergoing two simultaneous processes of transformation. On the one hand, areas that were already anthropized, pastures, are being converted into crops. On the other hand, however, we see crops coming directly onto native vegetation. This indicates that the increase in production in the biome is not due to better practices and soil management, but to the opening up of new areas for cultivation,\" explains Dhemerson Conciani, a researcher at IPAM who is part of the Cerrado team at MapBiomas. The replacement of pastures with grain crops is occurring more intensely in the south and southeast of the biome, in the states of S\u00e3o Paulo, Minas Gerais and Mato Grosso do Sul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MapBiomas researchers fear the effects of this rapid and radical transformation. \"We don't know the point of no return for the Cerrado,\" warns Julia Shimbo, a researcher at IPAM and MapBiomas' scientific coordinator. \"But there is already evidence of the impact of this loss of native vegetation on the regional climate.\"&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/gcb.16386\">Artigo<\/a>&nbsp;publicado por pesquisadores brasileiros concluiu que a convers\u00e3o de \u00e1reas nativas do Cerrado para pastagens e agricultura j\u00e1 tornou o clima na regi\u00e3o quase 1\u00b0C mais quente e 10% mais seco. \u201cMudan\u00e7as clim\u00e1ticas globais ainda podem agravar esse cen\u00e1rio de aumento de temperatura e redu\u00e7\u00e3o de chuvas, trazendo preju\u00edzos para a agricultura, o abastecimento de \u00e1gua das cidades e a produ\u00e7\u00e3o energ\u00e9tica do pa\u00eds.\u201d, completa Julia.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The preservation of the Cerrado depends heavily on private landowners, as the biome has only 12% of its territory protected by some kind of conservation unit or indigenous land. \"This means that 67% of the remaining native vegetation is on private property, emphasizing the responsibility of the private sector in conserving the world's most biodiverse savannah,\" he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The biome will gain a new system for monitoring deforestation alerts next week. The Cerrado Deforestation Alert System<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=w5oZ5SAegv4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">&nbsp;(SAD Cerrado), is launched this Monday, September 12th<\/a>&nbsp;at 10:30 am, by IPAM in partnership with the MapBiomas network and LAPIG\/UFG. The system uses artificial intelligence algorithms and 10-meter resolution Sentinel-2 satellite images to detect deforestation alerts covering the entire biome.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bioma j\u00e1 perdeu quase metade de sua vegeta\u00e7\u00e3o nativa&nbsp;e, com isso, est\u00e1 ficando mais quente e seco Acesse os destaques do Cerrado na Cole\u00e7\u00e3o 7 do MapBiomas Brasil 11 de setembro de 2022 &#8211;&nbsp;Entre 1985 e 2021, a \u00e1rea ocupada por lavouras de soja no Cerrado cresceu 1443%, ocupando quase 20 milh\u00f5es de hectares, ou [&hellip;]<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":3073,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"acf":[],"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/soja-cerrado.png",1080,1080,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/soja-cerrado-400x300.png",400,300,true],"medium":["https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/soja-cerrado-300x300.png",300,300,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/soja-cerrado-768x768.png",768,768,true],"large":["https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/soja-cerrado-1024x1024.png",1024,1024,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/soja-cerrado.png",1080,1080,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/soja-cerrado.png",1080,1080,false],"trp-custom-language-flag":["https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/soja-cerrado-12x12.png",12,12,true],"infographic":["https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/soja-cerrado-970x545.png",970,545,true],"team":["https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/09\/soja-cerrado-370x370.png",370,370,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Adriel Fernandes","author_link":"https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/en\/author\/adriel-fernandes\/"},"uagb_comment_info":22,"uagb_excerpt":"Bioma j\u00e1 perdeu quase metade de sua vegeta\u00e7\u00e3o nativa&nbsp;e, com isso, est\u00e1 ficando mais quente e seco Acesse os destaques do Cerrado na Cole\u00e7\u00e3o 7 do MapBiomas Brasil 11 de setembro de 2022 &#8211;&nbsp;Entre 1985 e 2021, a \u00e1rea ocupada por lavouras de soja no Cerrado cresceu 1443%, ocupando quase 20 milh\u00f5es de hectares, ou&hellip;","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2621"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2621"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2621\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3072,"href":"https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2621\/revisions\/3072"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3073"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2621"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2621"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brasil.mapbiomas.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2621"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
