Resumo: Climate change caused by human activities is a reality that can affect agricultural production, including small agribusiness and family farming. Thus, it is a phenomenon that should be considered in strategic decisions for the next decades, especially in regions whose economies have strong adherence to agriculture. Land use change, especially deforestation and burning and land degradation are generating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, but agricultural production, in its different modalities, and livestock are also seen as one of the major causes of global warming. In this context it is strategic to know the productive capacity of current systems and alternative technologies to accumulate and sequester C in soil and to prevent GHG emissions (direct or indirect).
