Abstract

Amazonas is one of the states that has the largest area without destination of rural public lands registered in the name of the Federal Union or INCRA, distributed mainly in federal public glebas and in the settlement projects of the agrarian reform program. The current public policies aimed at land title regularization in the Legal Amazon have a dimensional focus, quantitative of areas or of the number of titles issued, under the justification of productive inclusion of the new landowners to the agrifood market. The governmental policy for sustainable rural development is the responsibility of the Public Power, with the objective of reordering land distribution through territorial planning, by means of intervention in a space that comprises the planet's largest tropical forest biodiversity. Most of the areas to be destined in the state of Amazonas have a priority for conservation and the current landholding regularization program does not guarantee this purpose, considering the land legislation that allows the occupations that are occurring in this territory to be regularized by the national land agencies. This study presents as a proposal to discuss the sectorial agrarian policies that are being implemented by the Public Power in the state of Amazonas, indicating the legal instruments of rural destination foreseen in the legislation of land regularization of areas of federal public domain, aimed at environmental protection and the rational and sustainable use of natural resources located in the Legal Amazon biome
