This article presents partial results from a survey entitled "City of Inhumas: with and without floor edge on the border of metropolises." The overall objective is to identify the social and environmental impacts of the advance of cane sugar in the state of Goias and, specifically, to understand the consequences of the advance of agribusiness on the fringe of the metropolis. The methodology used consisted at first in secondary data collection by the IBGE, SEPLAN, CEASA, RAIS, SEFAZ, EMBRAPA and in a second stage, conducting semi-structured interviews with cane cutters in the city, small landowners, Residents and traders in the region, to evaluate the impacts of the expansion of sugarcane in the region. The results indicated the environmental and social impacts of Inhumas municipality and region, associated with the monoculture of sugarcane, such as homogeneity in the production process, because the land use aims to produce large economic scale, the logic of the agribusiness of cane sugar has been generating social exclusion, for leases of land for planting sugarcane are expropriating the property of the small population, and thus pushing them to the city.
