(International Journal of Engineering Research and Applications, 2018-03) CARVALHO, André Cutrim; FILGUEIRAS, Gisalda Carvalho; CARVALHO, Abner Vilhena de; BENTES, Elisabeth dos Santos; ARAÚJO, Ana Cláudia de Sousa
The fundamental aim of this research is to establish an analysis with regard to non-sustainable economic models to the environment, also known as Business as Usual, and as an alternative proposal sustainable ecosystem model called Sustainable Ecosystem Management, which has a target to reverse this unsustainability of logic in the Brazilian Amazon. The main conclusion is that the growth trend of the pharmaceutical industry demand for products derived from the medicinal plant agriculture may constitute a window of opportunity for interesting application of sustainable development, especially for the countries possessing broad biodiversity - like Brazil - which features unique ability to develop biotechnological innovations, from the application of the ecosystem sustainability model.

Dynamics of forest deforestation in the amazon of pará: an approach centered in space econometry
(International Journal of Development Research, 2018-06) CARVALHO, André Cutrim; SILVA, Raimundo Nelson Souza da; FILGUEIRAS, Gisalda Carvalho; CARVALHO, Abner Vilhena de; FREITAS, Tatiana Pará Monteiro de; BENTES, Elisabeth dos Santos
This article aims to theoretically discuss the main factors responsible for the dynamics of forest clearing in the Amazon of ofPará, an approach perspective performed through spatial econometrics. The basic hypothesis is that the expansion of the agricultural frontier is the conductive element from forest deforestation phenomenon in Pará. In this context, the spatial econometrics served as an extremely important tool to measure, from the results obtained in spatial econometric model the effects that the forest clearing has led in Pará. The main conclusion is that the increased expansion of cattle ranching in the Amazon frontier driven by demand from abroad has directly influenced the increase of deforestation, hindering the development of sustainable activity in the region.The period chosen for the spatial econometric analysis covers the years 2000 and 2008 due to high forest deforestation rate in the state of Pará.

O papel do fundo constitucional de financiamento do norte e do programa nacional de fortalecimento da agricultura familiar para a região norte do Brasil
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2017) FILGUEIRAS, Gisalda Carvalho; BENTES, Elisabeth dos Santos; CARVALHO, André Cutrim; ARAÚJO, Ana Cláudia de Sousa; OLIVEIRA, Clayton Douglas Chagas de
This research aimed to analyze the implementation of rural credit resources FNO Pronaf in agriculture/Familiar (AF) in the northern region. He admitted that these funds have contributed to the growth of agricultural production in the region, having a relevant role in food production, as well as in the generation of income and pricing policy in the field. The results revealed that: each State has its own dynamics with regard to the rural sector, with a greater or lesser degree, depending on the agrarian structure and the performance of public policies directed to that segment; some States have low credit demand of FNO/Pronaf for reasons as agrarian conflicts and casting of rural activities arising from laws relating to environmental protection; There are concentration of resources granted for the expansion of the production of the AF held by groups with higher income levels, and only some States specialize in the agricultural sector.
