Resumo

Since the 1970 and 1980, a group of great companies (mostly foreign) that operate in the grain sector (soy and corn) is installed in Triangulo Mineiro/Alto Paranaíba region, and creates, with support of state policies, the conditions of modernization and territorial specialization productive, transforming the Triangulo Mineiro/Alto Paranaíba into main region of modern agribusiness, in Minas Gerais estate (Brazil). Nowadays, new external demands produce the recent expansion of sugarcane cultivation, with the insertion of new agents and substantial reconfiguration of territorial uses, indicating, again, a process of concentration of resources and a situation of territorial instability.
