- Abstract
This work presents a study on the agrarian structure in the Northeast Region and the state of Ceara in special, using agricultural census data from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) for the years 1970, 1975, 1980, 1985, 1996 and 2006. We analysed the concentration of land ownership in this region by calculating the Gini index, grouping the states which had similar rates during the period. Ceará State was used as a study case to evaluate the degree of concentration of land ownership for the microregion in the decade 1996-2006, by time and space. The results found that both the Northeast and Ceará have not changed in the agrarian structure during the period 1970 to 2006, staying with a strong concentration of land ownership during the years studied.
